The Dallas Museum of Art offers eight nine-month paid internship positions in the Education and Curatorial Divisions. These internships are intended for those individuals who wish to explore a career in museum work. Projects assigned involve considerable responsibility and will provide opportunities for the contribution of individual work. While the Museum does not guarantee employment after the internship, these positions have led many interns to careers in the museum field. 

Summer Art Camp Internships

The Dallas Museum of Art is offering four internship positions in the Family Experiences Department for summer 2012, each with a $500 honorarium. The interns will work with an art instructor and assist with the Summer Art Camp programs designed for students age 4–12. Interns will learn how to guide students in art-making activities and assist instructors during class, building their hands-on teaching skills.
