The Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation has been overseeing the International Internship Program at the Peggy Guggenheim Collection for the past 40 years.

The program is designed for students and recent graduates in art, art history, or related disciplines, who are interested in gaining first-hand experience of how a museum is run and familiarity with an important collection of modern art.

The International Internship Program at the Peggy Guggenheim Collection started in 1980. International participants who share a passion for art participate in the program each year.
