Women Photographers International Archive (WOPHA) seeks an intern to assist with preparations for and production of the 2021 WOPHA Congress, a two-day creative symposium that seeks to create a place for photography in Miami. WOPHA Congress brings together worldwide organizations of women photographers, art historians, and curators who aim to build upon and better represent the dynamic history of women photographers from the 19th Century through today. It will create a highly visible, interactive event presenting daily panels and presentations from Thursday, November 18, 2021, to Friday, November 19, 2021, at Perez Art Museum Miami (PAMM).

The ideal candidate has excellent written and oral communication skills and expresses interest in nonprofit arts fundraising, hospitality, business, marketing, communications, or other related fields. The intern must be able to cultivate new relationships and work with diverse audiences. Preferences: Bilingual (Spanish) is a plus, but not a requirement.
