Hi GLAM-Wiki community,
I was asked to share this opportunity with you. It's also available for
international candidates, and they offer a cost-of-living/relocation
stipend. Good luck! :)

We're particularly interested in applicants with interests/backgrounds in
digital/cultural heritage areas. A short description follows for the open
data internship project we're hoping to place:
*Digital Solutions and the Center for Advanced Study in the Visual Arts
seek an intern to experiment with public data services and to develop
strategies for Open Data and Wikimedia for National Gallery of Art
collections of artworks and archives. We want to expand our GitHub presence
to offer a “Lab Space” for experimental projects that create new,
open-source tools to discover artworks, archives, and library collections.
The intern will be part of a dynamic, cross-department team and will
directly support data mapping and reconciliation projects. They will also
collect and analyze student and user input about preferences and requests
for the current Open Data presence and for future iterations. Starting from
experiments and learning, together we will work across departments towards
drafting a publishable article or research paper about the experience
and lessons learned for GLAMs (Galleries, Libraries, Archives, and
Museums).*
If anyone has questions, feel free to share emails for our Digital Research
Officer Matt Westerby (m-westerby(a)nga.gov), myself as Manager for Analytics
and Enterprise Architecture (k-krut(a)nga.gov), and our Manager of
Pre-Professional Programs George Luna-Pena (g-luna-pena(a)nga.gov).
