Museum Apprentice

Are you a junior or senior in high school and enjoy history?  The York County Heritage Trust’s Museum Apprentice Program provides students who have completed the 10^th grade or requirements thereof a unique and exciting opportunity.  Museum apprentices work with the Trust’s programming staff as they design and install an exhibit and organize a special educational program.  As they complete their projects, participants will be introduced to the public history field and discover the challenges of working in a museum. 

Most importantly, the Museum apprentices get to have fun with history.  The museum apprentice program is a great way to meet new people and try new things such as baking in an 18^th century bake oven.  Students will also enjoy a field trip to a local historical site. 

*Please note that this is a competitive program with limited space available.

 **The Museum Apprentice Program is sponsored by the York County Heritage Trust's Auxiliary.
