Sadly, I was unable to attend the last day of my internship due to being sick, but overall I am grateful for the time I have had here. Though it wasn't the internship I was expecting, it was a fun and informative one overall. I have learned the ins and outs of event planning, the funding of a non profit museum, and have been exposed to some beautiful pieces of art. Everything from handling donations, exploring the museum and the back vaults, and even sorting through the mailing list has been a valuable experience and has shown me different aspects of running a museum. There is so much that happens behind the scenes and so many people who put work into even the simplest things. From now on whenever I enter any museum, I will have a great appreciation for the small finishing touches that are so easy to pass by. The people I have worked with have all been very kind and helpful throughout my experience, and they truly made my internship what it was.
