We are looking for a Curatorial Programming Intern that will work alongside our team during the upcoming period between September and December! 

The responsibilities held by the intern typically include assisting with research for exhibitions, archiving, writing, and supporting the planning, installation and deinstallation of exhibitions. This role allows the intern to develop key skills in art historical research, curation, project management, and public engagement. The intern will engage with community outreach and contribute to educational programs through different projects. The intern will be exposed to the variety of projects within Dirwaza’s reach at the current time of the internship, and not dedicated to a single project.
