The Utah Museum of Contemporary Art is pleased to welcome an Education Intern for the 2023 Summer quarter! The Education Intern supports this mission by assisting with community events, developing curriculum and teaching summer camps for ages 9-14, and developing projects that support their own professional goals. Special projects for this quarter include assisting with the Utah Arts Festival, taking the lead on planning one Family Art Saturday, and helping curate the summer camp student exhibition and 2023-2024 mobile Art Truck exhibition.

UMOCA’s rich and vibrant history began nearly 90 years ago, when an ambitious woman named Alta Rawlins Jensen set out to create what The Salt Lake Telegram described as a “Greenwich Village for Salt Lake.”

Open to all, UMOCA is Utah’s only museum solely devoted to contemporary art and culture. Through advocacy, collaboration, and programming, we work with artists and communities to build a better world.
