The Mico University College

Opportunities

The INAFCA Museum Docent Internship Programme is designed to provide insight into the workings of a professional museum environment. In addition, interns develop a broader understanding of Jamaican heritage and culture while working with Museum staff conducting guided tours, in-house and outreach programmes.  

The Programme

The programme has three (3) periods of internship; spring (March – May), summer (June – August) and fall (October – December). Applicants are required to work a continuous period of three (3) months. 

The Application Process

The procedure of applying is very simple. 

  1. Request an application form and programme guideline from the INAFCA Museum at inafcamuseum@themico.edu.jm

  2. Return via email, completed application form along with resume and 2 letters of recommendation, on or before the deadline of chosen period of internship. Only Short listed applicants will be contacted for an interview.

Internships at the INAFCA are open to international applicants. Interns are responsible for ensuring that they have valid legal status under applicable Jamaica visa regulations while participating in the Museum’s program. Although the Museum will act as your host institution, the Museum does not sponsor visas for interns.

The INAFCA collection has grown to over 1400 pieces, and continues to grow, due to the generous donations of various Mico Alumnus and other individuals, who see the value and share the vision of the INAFCA Museum.  

By donating artefacts or works of art to the INAFCA Museum, you ensure that it will be cared for professionally, exhibited, and appreciated by generations of visitors.
