Ten positions to support educational programming at the Museum of Mississippi History and the Mississippi Civil Rights Museum.
MDAH is committed to teaching the next generation of Mississippians about their state’s history honestly. Through the project My Mississippi: Virtual Visits and Shared Storytelling students and teachers across the state will be invited behind the scenes for virtual tours of historic objects, clothes, quilts, furniture, and more. Each item in the collection has its own story that will help students connect to the past and understand how that has shaped the present.
