Exhibit Design Internship
Feb - April 2025
My Time at CB
I had an extremely fruitful three months in Bentonville on Crystal Bridges' beautiful campus in spring 2025. I worked full-time under the supervision of the Exhibit Design team and worked closely with the Curation, Graphic Design, and Content teams. It was so amazing to be immersed in art and work at the service of amplifying artists' voices through design!
