The Calvert Marine Museum in Solomons Maryland, a lovely little town on the Western shore of the Chesapeake Bay, focuses on the ecological and social history of the Chesapeake Bay region, including watermen, prehistoric life (dinosaur bones!), live aquatic animals (including manta rays and sea otters!), and military history. There are kid-friendly exhibits, a touch tank containing a variety of Bay organisms, and a furnished Chesapeake Bay lighthouse. There is also an outdoor stage that hosts major performing artists for concerts throughout the year.
Internship opportunities are posted here when available.

The Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum is a unique waterfront museum encompassing a swath of land with multiple repurposed buildings featuring exhibits on Chesapeake Bay history, culture, and ecology. One of the most recognizable features of the museum is its 1870s lighthouse as well as its working boat docks, open to visitors arriving by sea, and historic boat collections and working boat shop. Internships are offered in the summer in the education, curatorial, and events fields. Housing may be available as well. The town and museum are beautiful and truly unique! The author served as an education internship and found it extremely rewarding. Seasonal and part-time work is often offered as well, as are boat crafting apprenticeships to qualified applicants.
Internship opportunities are posted here when available. (Most likely posted in January and February and due in late February for the summer.)
