Job Description:
The goal of this internship is to implement the new interpretation plan for Sherbrooke Village. The plan will include key messages and story lines for the Village’s main historic buildings and people, relating these to other important historic figures and events in Canada’s history. The plan will also highlight ways and means to have visitors become fully immersed in 1860’s village life. Working under the direction of the Executive Director, the Intern will interact with other successful living history museums to learn their best practices and adapt relevant programs to Sherbrooke, implement additional programs with opportunities unique to Sherbrooke Village (related to heritage craft production, music, vignettes and additional programs for visitors), and explore new innovations as well as part of this planning project. Leadership coaching and career development will be an important component of this internship.

The applicant must have a completed degree and not be returning to school in the fall.


Candidates must provide a resume and a covering letter that clearly outlines how the candidate meets education and experience criteria. The resume and letter should be sent to the attention of the Executive Director of Sherbrooke Village via email (Lynn.hayne@novascotia.ca) by 11:59 AST, May 25, 2018.
