Art History

Thursday, October 10th at 7PM in SAB 118A, the Department of Art History is hosting its annual Internship Workshop! You'll learn all the tips and tricks YOU need to land a great internship in art history and related fields such as museums (all aspects), libraries, archives, galleries and more.

You don't have to be a declared Art History major/minor/or concentrator to come; there's lots of valuable information for all students considering an internship.

We'll hear from several of our current students and alumni about their experiences seeking out and landing internships. as well as Natalie Aguilar, the Manager of the Internship Program at the Brooklyn Museum, about how museums select student applicants for internship opportunities.

Refreshments will be served too!

Col. Matthew Bogdanos has led the fight to protect antiquities and ensure their return to their rightful homes since he spent months directing an operation to recover thousands of antiquities looted from the Iraq National Museum in Baghdad during the U.S. invasion of Iraq in 2003.

A recipient of the Bronze Star and a National Humanities Medal, he turned his passion into the Antiquities Trafficking Unit, the world's first prosecutorial squad dedicated to antiquities thievery, which has recovered more than 4000 ancient objects valued at more than $200 million. He continues to serve as a prosecutor for the Manhattan District Attorney's office.
