What is your name? Isabel Wolfer
Where was your internship located? The Galicia Jewish Museum in Poland.
How has the experience influenced your career path? At Galicia Jewish Museum, I learned the value of proximity. I was able to stand near people who do beautiful work and conceptualize how I can do similar work as I begin my professional life. As an intern, I learned how to translate my passion for Jewish history into tangible projects and collaborate with others who had the same intention. What were your major tasks or projects? As an intern in the Education Department, I had a variety of platforms to become acquainted with the work of the museum. My primary responsibility was giving tours of the exhibitions. This entailed becoming familiar with a long script and drafting a script of my own to supplement my understanding.
