Are you a musician or music aficionado? We are looking for a creative student to assist with our extensive musical collection and various programs at the Mansion this fall. Our Music Intern will dive in and become an integral part of our museum by helping us curate our extensive collection of albums, photos, music memorabilia, and instruments as well as help with our live concerts, jam sessions, and more. Please subscribe to our youtube channel before applying so you can see who we are.

Benefits:
College credit
Resume building, real-world experience
Access to rare memorabilia, photos, and instruments (we’re home to over 60 signed guitars including Bob Dylan, U2, Bruce Springsteen and more)
Exposure to many different music genres

This is an unpaid internship.

Within all interns first week at The Mansion on O Street, they are not given a project. Instead, they help out with different aspects of The Mansion. These tasks will not necessarily correlate to what they initially thought their internship would center on but this helps us to get to know the interns before giving them a definitive project. By having them help with spur of the moment tasks their first week, we are able to better tailor internships to be a good fit for the intern as well as for The Mansion.
