Teen Council & Teen Internships (School Year & Summer)

Best for: Chicago-area students who want a museum experience that builds real skills in interpretation, event planning, and working with educators. Day to day: Depending on the track, students may join a teen council or internship-style program that involves planning teen-facing events, learning how galleries and departments function, and building confidence talking about art with others. Common pitfalls: Some official pages can be hard to access from certain networks, and the most current details can live on the specific teen-program subpages, so students should click through rather than relying on the hub page. Verify details on the official page.
