Each year, the Arkansas Committee of the National Museum of Women in the Arts (ACNMWA) selects an Arkansas woman student attending an Arkansas university or college to receive a $3,000 stipend to collaborate with a mentor working in an Arkansas museum, gallery or arts institution.

The internship is designed to give the student an opportunity to learn about and make contributions to the cultural life of Arkansas while enriching her program of study related to the advancement of fine arts, art history or arts administration. The internship has enabled recipients to pursue real-life work experiences in the arts.

The application deadline is March 1 and the recipient will be announced in April. Learn more and apply online here. For questions or more information, please contact This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..
