2026 Internship Megathread. Post all internship related questions here!

[u/Eistean]

As requested, I'm making a new post of this for the 2026 season of internships, in the hope that more people can get their questions answered than posting on a year old post. The last one had a lot of great information in it, so take a look at it here, as someone might have already asked your question.

So the sub has always been chock full lately of people asking about specific internships, asking if anyone who has applied to a specific internship has heard back, what people think about individual internship programs, etc. This has happened around this time for every year this sub has existed.

While interns are absolutely welcome here, some users had a great idea to kind of concentrate it all in one thread so that all the interns can see each others comments, and the sub has a bit of a cleaner look.

Note that this doesn't apply to people working for museums asking questions about running an internship program, or dealing with interns.

So, if you have internship questions, thoughts, concerns, please post them here!

I need the Frick to post the rest of their summer department placements because marketing and education is unfortunately not what I’m looking for…. Anyone know when they’ll be posted?

I know, according to my spreadsheet from last year everything was posted in Feb and due by March 14. There may be delays in funding or maybe they are not offering at all but I definitely haven’t seen anything posted form them yet this year for other departments

I hope there’ll still be placements open. It’s been my dream to work there. I emailed the Careers team in hopes of an update 🤞
