The Betts House is preparing an exhibit on the bicentennial of the New Madrid Earthquakes for 2011. Our 205 year old house is one of the few remaining survivors of the earthquakes and as such, has a unique position in this important yet often forgotten episode of history. Our exhibit will cover three areas: geology, history, and the effect of earthquakes on historic and modern building technologies.
The intern will conduct research for the history section of the exhibit by looking for primary sources and materials. The intern will prepare a bibliography, make copies where appropriate, and prepare some draft text for the exhibit
The intern will receive an orientation on local resources and will research independently and meet weekly with staff to review their progress. The intern will also be able to experience day to day operations of the facility learning first-hand the variety of roles and responsibilities of museum professionals.
This internship is funded, in part, by the American Association of State and Local History Alderson Internship program.
QUALIFICATIONS NEEDED:
