Possible projects include:
- Execute a program for use by schools in coordination with fieldtrips to the Birthplace. ensure that this meets state standards for curricular support; promote this program to local schools & youth organizations
- Study children’s culture in the Berkshires contemporary to the Anthonys- schooling, roll of children in mills, etc. & design curricular materials to present this
- Work on possible kiosk designs and programming for the museum
- Design and research scavenger hunts or similar activities for use by children’s groups in the museum.
Intern Application Information:
