The Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation oversees a unique and wide-ranging international internship program at the Peggy Guggenheim Collection for students and recent graduates of art, art history or related disciplines interested in gaining first-hand, practical experience of how a museum is run and familiarity with an important collection of modern art.
Some of the activities carried out by participants include supporting the Visitor Services Department in the ticket office, welcoming and engaging visitors, and being present in the galleries during opening hours. Participants also collaborate with the Education Department through regular presentations to the public on the life and collection of Peggy Guggenheim, guided tours, and workshops with children, and may have the opportunity to support the Events Department during institutional events and inaugurations.
The International Internship Program at the Peggy Guggenheim Collection also includes activities such as seminars, lectures, educational trips both within and outside the city of Venice, and guided tours specifically planned to facilitate the practice, dialogue, and study of students’ respective academic and professional skills.
