It's also available for international candidates, and they offer a cost-of-living/relocation stipend. Good luck! :) *Opportunity: Open Data Internship at the National Gallery of Art* Academic Year Internships page: https://www.nga.gov/employment-opportunities/academic-year-internships <https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.nga.gov_employment-2Dopportunities_academic-2Dyear-2Dinternships&d=DwMFAg&c=slrrB7dE8n7gBJbeO0g-IQ&r=UxntHcQ7VugCYi9JiJRmjg&m=BPMYsqaKx5L_KUquKs6SFslRgELqafRhQf2gKimx6IMx4dIlY2q3AIdtuVWvNzy_&s=ccaihUIcVFIFNSZPcyMLZHYV_kOnu6zi3QfnnaAHBX4&e=> . Program basics: - Deadline: April 6, 2026 by 5:00pm ET - Dates: September 22, 2026 – May 15, 2027 (34 weeks), full-time - Compensation: Total stipend amount is $34,353.60 + $6,868 cost-of-living stipend (disbursed during the year) - How to apply: applicants must apply through the National Gallery’s online application portal (no email submissions) We're particularly interested in applicants with interests/backgrounds in digital/cultural heritage areas. A short description follows for the open data internship project we're hoping to place: *Digital Solutions and the Center for Advanced Study in the Visual Arts seek an intern to experiment with public data services and to develop strategies for Open Data and Wikimedia for National Gallery of Art collections of artworks and archives. We want to expand our GitHub presence to offer a “Lab Space” for experimental projects that create new, open-source tools to discover artworks, archives, and library collections. The intern will be part of a dynamic, cross-department team and will directly support data mapping and reconciliation projects. They will also collect and analyze student and user input about preferences and requests for the current Open Data presence and for future iterations. Starting from experiments and learning, together we will work across departments towards drafting a publishable article or research paper about the experience and lessons learned for GLAMs (Galleries, Libraries, Archives, and Museums).* If anyone has questions, feel free to share emails for our Digital Research Officer Matt Westerby ([email protected]), myself as Manager for Analytics and Enterprise Architecture ([email protected]), and our Manager of Pre-Professional Programs George Luna-Pena ([email protected]).
