About Smithsonian Asian Pacific American Center

The Smithsonian Asian Pacific American Center believes that a great 21st-century museum is more than a building. Everyone must engage communities in surprising and innovative ways, transcending boundaries, and barriers. Basically, the center is a migratory museum that brings Asian Pacific American history, art, and culture to you through innovative museum experiences online and throughout the United States.

The Center works to redefine and expand the traditional museum model to transform how museums can be places for civic engagement, critical and constructive dialogue, and social justice. Through public programs, like the signature series Culture Labs, that invite visitors to inquire, discover, and learn via direct exchanges with artists, scholars, and cultural practitioners, the center also engages the public through events that recognize art and culture as vehicles that can bring them together in a new model of the museum experience.

Benefits

APAC offers modest internship stipends every semester–funding is limited and highly competitive. Interns may also receive academic credit through their universities. The center encourages all applicants to research scholarship opportunities that support internships at their universities. The Smithsonian Office of Fellowships and Internships also offers funded opportunities through several scholarship programs.

Eligibilities

The internship is open current undergraduate students (current sophomores, juniors, and seniors), graduate students, and recent graduates. Moreover, all majors are welcome to apply.
