About the Internship

The graphic design internship offers the intern the opportunity to participate in helping to create experiences for museum visitors. The intern will gain exposure to a variety of graphic design processes, including creating graphic elements for exhibitions and working closely with exhibition designers. The position will also involve having the intern work across a variety of subject matter areas with the intern coming away from the internship with a cohesive project for their portfolio.

This role is presented in response to a need to grow our portfolio of Flying Fish's touring exhibition offerings. The intern experience should be an enjoyable one.
