Internships:

An internship at Portland Children's Museum is a great way to develop skills and gain general work experience or experience working in the non-profit sector. Many of the Museum's interns receive credit from their college or university: the Museum encourages interns to explore this option and will assist the intern in getting credit whenever possible. Internships are not compensated and require a minimum 12-week time commitment. Needs and schedules vary by department.

Currently, we are accepting resumes and cover letters for Programs Internship only. If you would like more information or have questions, please email volunteer@portlandcm.org
