Aimed at young people interested in professional development, this 10-week paid placement provides on-the-job training in all aspects of museum operations for a Bermudian aged 18 to 25.

This position is made possible through funds raised by the BNG Run For The Arts 5k sponsored by Chubb, and is for a student or young person from the North-East Hamilton area.

The selected candidate will support the small team of staff with projects that cover all aspects of running a dynamic arts and culture institution. The programme structure is tailored to each participant’s experience and interest, with the aim of developing their resume to best assist with their career goals. This will include, but is not limited to, assisting with:

  • Office administration
  • Exhibition research, design and creation

“The BNG internship was unforgettable! From giving tours, curating an exhibition and learning about the internal workings of an organisation, I developed valuable relational, organisational and operational skills. It was truly an experience which nurtured growth and in which teamwork was valued. This was an important part of my career trajectory.”
