InternActive

InternActive was born out of enthusiasm and experience. As a grad student (we can’t say when) our leader, Lydia Johnson, pulled a harpsichord worth of strings to land an internship with the curator of antiquities at the J. Paul Getty Museum. For a student of the humanities, an internship in the vaults of the villa overlooking the Pacific was an awe-inspiring opportunity.

Diploma and white gloves in hand, our artifact lover eventually became a Professor and Museum Director herself. She took students under her wing, nurtured them, and placed them in internships. The student/mentor relationship was electric. Time and time again, Lydia found that an enthusiastic student and a knowledgeable supervisor made a great team and each benefited from the experience. That’s why InternActive was created.
