Overview
The Scoop

With support from the Carnegie Institute and Dia Center for the Arts, the Andy Warhol Museum has a vast collection and archive of one of the most infuential artists of the late 20th century.  The museum’s motto, “more than a museum,” is evident with celebrations like 2003’s Summer of Andy.  In honor of what would have been the late artist’s 75th birthday, the Warhol Museum put on a celebratory exhibition from its permanent collection, unique online projects, a 13-country tour of Warhol’s work, a special exhibition of work by former Charlie’s Angel Farrah Fawcett and, of course, lots of parties.  The man himself would have loved it!

On the Job

Internships at the Warhol are extremely flexible, and positions are available in just about every department—archives, marketing, exhibitions, education and more.  Depending on abilities, interests and department, interns can do anything from entering archive data to mounting exhibitions.
