INTERNSHIPS
The Museum of Contemporary African Diasporan Arts (MoCADA) offers a robust, hands-on internship program working in Brooklyn’s premier museum dedicated to social justice and contemporary art made by creators (who identify as being of African descent) across a variety of disciplines.
During the academic year, MoCADA offers part-time, paid internships (full-time paid internships in the summer), which start at the beginning of each semester until the end of the term. Each internship term requires a minimum commitment of two days a week on site. We accept applications from current juniors and seniors, recent graduates and graduate students.
Interns are placed in departments across the museum where they assist professional staff, interact with the public, conduct research, provide administrative support, and explore social justice, the African diaspora, and art through a contemporary lens. Interns also gain valuable training, skills, and work experience as well as an opportunity to build a network of professional contacts.
If you are interested in exploring the art world, activism, community engagement, and history of the African diaspora, we encourage you to apply. Send your resume and cover to internships@mocada.org for consideration.
