It is that time of year again! The Mitchell House – and all the MMA’s museum sites and the Aquarium – are open for the season! We have welcomed back approximately twenty-eight college interns – and will soon welcome our high school interns and even more volunteers.
This summer, the Mitchell House intern is Anne Lofgren, who will be a senior at Middlebury College this fall. Anne has been working to learn all about the Mitchell House, Maria Mitchell, and her family in preparation for providing tours to you and our visitors, as well as the children who participate in our Junior Historians. Anne will also be working on conservation projects in the Mitchell House, assisting with other public outreach for both the Mitchell House and the MMA, and working on some research projects while she is here – all while learning how a historic house runs and all the pieces that make it what it is. And, as we all know, the Mitchell House is an especially wonderful house!
So, please plan to come for a visit this summer – whether it will be your first or your 100th – there is always something new to learn!
