Below-Average Pay with Above-Average Expectations

Pros

Some of the pros would be access to the amazing galleries, free admission to any and all events that are going on, and the chance to meet great artists and make new friends. Also: as a small institution still, you get the chance to interact with every person on staff, including the museum director, Joe.

Cons

As an intern at MM, you are basically expected to do all the things they aren't willing to pay a real employee to do. Although you do get free housing (in a janky house nearby) and a weekly stipend of $100/week, you don't really get the chance to learn new skills or grow as an intellectual. You are also expected to drop everything to do random crap like ticketing at a weekend event, just because you are an intern.

Pros

Loved the people I worked with!! Very diverse crowd... nice to be in a place where I thought there was a meaningful mission and people who valued the same things I do. Management was great and very hands on... very open to lower level employees' opinions.

Cons

pay was minimal. since the staff is so close-knit, there are not many chances for growth within the company
