Summer Curatorial Research Intern: Olivia White ’20 (UMass MA ’25)

As a master’s student in the History of Art & Architecture Department at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, I sought a summer research internship that would offer flexible hours and help develop my skills as an aspiring art historian specializing in the long nineteenth century. The SCMA fully met these goals, with the added benefit of attentive and caring mentorship from Danielle Carrabino, Curator of Painting and Sculpture.
