Internships: Kimbell Art Museum Seeks Summer Intern

The Kimbell Art Museum offers paid, part-time Marketing and Public Relations internship to undergraduate and graduate students, as well as recent graduates, who are interested in learning about museum practices and developing professional skills.

The Kimbell Art Museum officially opened on October 4, 1972 in Fort Worth, Texas. The works of art initially came from the Kimbell Art Foundation, founded in 1936. The Kimbell collection now is comprised of 350 works that not only epitomize their periods and movements but also touch individual high points of aesthetic beauty and historical importance.
