Internships

The Buffalo AKG Art Museum believes that all qualified candidates should have access to jobs in the museum field and that all employees should be compensated fairly for their work. In accordance with the recommendation of the Association of Art Museum Directors (AAMD), the Buffalo AKG offers paid compensation for all internship positions.

The Buffalo AKG is currently reimagining its internship program and, therefore, will not be hosting interns in summer of 2025. We are looking forward to hosting a new and improved internship program in the future. If you are interested in other ways to get involved with the museum, feel free to look at our Volunteer and Docent opportunities. 

For questions or more information, please contact the Talent & Culture Department at 716 270 8205 or send your inquiry to internships@buffaloakg.org.
