THE CENTER FOR CRAFT, CREATIVITY & DESIGN NOW ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS FOR 2015 WINDGATE MUSEUM INTERNSHIP HOST INSTITUTIONS


The Center for Craft, Creativity & Design (CCCD) administers the Windgate Museum Internship program which provides $5,000 internships to four nationally selected undergraduate or graduate students to work under the direction of curators or directors in decorative arts or contemporary craft collections, exhibitions and/or programs. The goal of these internships is to support and expand the number of future curators with education and interest in contemporary studio craft.

Applications are now open for museums, galleries, foundations, and non-profits with craft collections and curatorial staff requiring intern assistance. CCCD will select four institutions and a call for interns will be made in March 2015.
