Please see internship message below:

Good afternoon,

I am the Digital Content Manager for the Smithsonian National Museum of African American History & Culture, which is scheduled to open on the National Mall in 2015.  I have unpaid internship openings for this summer and also for next fall, and I'm trying to find interns who have experience with and interest in digital history projects.  I was hoping you could pass this along to any appropriate mailing lists.

There are several project possibilities, including coordinating the development of an educational mobile application for our exhibit opening this winter, and work on web/mobile/digital projects for our inaugural exhibits when the museum opens in 2015.  Here's the blurb for the internship:

Digital Content & History

The intern will assist in the planning and development of the museum's web, social media and mobile technology. Duties may include writing for the NMAAHC blog and social media, researching best practices for digital history initiatives, and developing specific digital history and culture projects. Internships may focus on upcoming exhibits, development for the inaugural exhibits, or on-going projects. The intern must have solid computer and research skills, a background and interest in digital history, demonstrated initiative and the ability to work independently.

For more information and instructions on how to apply, they can visit http://nmaahc.si.edu/getinvolved/internships.  Many thanks for your assistance!

Regards,
Marcella L. Florence
