Museum Council of Greater Philadelphia Internship Grant
The Museum Council of Greater Philadelphia is committed to supporting Emerging Museum Professionals (EMPs) as they begin their museum careers. We believe that internships are a critical part of career development. Unpaid internships can create a financial barrier that disproportionately affects BIPOC and lower-income individuals from entering the museum field. Museum Council of Greater Philadelphia believes that paid internship opportunities are a key part of diversifying the museum workforce. We recognize that many museums do not possess the financial resources needed in order to provide these opportunities. With this in mind, the Museum Council of Greater Philadelphia has created a grant opportunity for one individual to offset the burden from individual institutions while providing funding directly to the intern.
