Volunteer Internship Opportunity
Gibbs Farm Summer Youth Intern Program - Summer 2026 Application Period Open Now!
Gibbs Farm’s Youth Intern Program is a summer leadership program that allows students between the ages of 15 to 18 to experience working at a historic site as they assist staff in running camps. Interns accepted into the program attend a one-day training session in June. During most camps, interns are costumed and are responsible for helping staff and making sure all the campers feel included and have the best experience possible! We are looking for responsible, fun, and engaging teenagers who are interested in history and enjoy hanging out with kids! There is no fee associated with this program, but interns are expected to have some means of transportation to and from the site for volunteer shifts. Interested interns are required to be available for a minimum of four weeks of camp (at least 12 days throughout the summer) but will not necessarily be scheduled for each day. Please note that we have a limited number of intern slots available and submitting an application will not guarantee being accepted into the program. Any applicant not selected to participate in this year’s program is encouraged to reapply in 2027. Applications are due by end of day Sunday, March 29th, 2026. If you have any questions, please email [email protected].
