Want to find out more about careers in the arts? Apply for this Virtual Insight Day with the National Portrait Gallery!
Have you ever wondered what goes on behind-the-scenes in an art gallery? Join us for a day of talks and discussions to learn about the variety of careers available in the arts and museums sectors.
Whether you want to find out about how we look after our Collection, create new exhibitions or develop exciting digital content, this Insight Day is for you. You will hear from colleagues about their day-to-day and career journeys, get involved in practical tasks and enjoy a session to learn about entry level jobs with our HR team.
You do not need to know anything about art and museums! This session will show you the variety of skills needed to run a museum and the career paths to land your dream job in the arts, as well as other ways to engage with the Gallery as a young person.
This Insight Day will run from 10am until 3pm.
We look forward to virtually meeting you and answering all your questions!
