Hood Quarterly, spring/summer 2011
Each year, the Hood Museum of Art offers internships to Dartmouth students entering their senior year. Students from all majors and backgrounds are encouraged to apply, and we had a record number of applicants in fall 2010, making the selection process extremely competitive. The museum is delighted to have five Dartmouth seniors on staff this year: Courtney Chapel, Maria Fillas, Dylan Leavitt, Kasia Vincunas, and Natalia Wrobel.
In addition to their curatorial and programming work, each intern has the opportunity to create an A Space for Dialogue installation.They are responsible for every aspect of the exhibition, including selecting objects, researching and writing labels and a brochure, working with staff to design and install the show, and giving a public gallery talk when their installation is on view. A Space for Dialogue installations change approximately every seven weeks.
