Teen Museum Studies Exhibition Opportunity

Teen Museum Studies (TMS) is a summer intensive internship that engages high school students in direct exposure to museum careers, develops collaboration and critical thinking skills, and offers the chance to select and work with a St. Louis-based artist to organize an exhibition in CAM’s Education Galleries.

An essential part of TMS is the involvement of local artists. Eligible artists are invited to submit an exhibition proposal for consideration; the selected TMS artist receives a $1,500 stipend.

The call for TMS Artist Exhibition Proposals is open.

A $1,500 stipend will be provided for time and supplies. Due to the short turnaround time, artists are encouraged to present existing artworks. Please see the TMS Artist Exhibition Proposal Guidelines for further information on preparing an application.

The call for TMS Artist Exhibition Proposals is open. The application will be available until May 18 at 11:59 PM CST.
