The Textile Conservation Lab is seeking a graduate conservation
    student to assist with ongoing preventive conservation and
    treatment of Alexander Girard textiles at the Eero Saarinen
    designed Miller House in Columbus, Indiana.   Commissioned in
    1953 this modernist house showcases the collaborative work of
    architect Eero Saarinen, interior designer Alexander Girard and
    landscape architect Dan Kiley.  This summer internship will
    build upon work commenced in 2012. During the summer of 2013
    focus will be on treating and possibly reproducing some of the
    window coverings.  Treatment activities will include tide line
    reduction and structural repairs. The intern may also assist
    with the development and implementation of a preventive
    conservation strategy to mitigate light exposure throughout the
    house.

    A stipend may be awarded if application is made through the
    IMA's Internship/Scholar Program by the January 18, 2013
    deadline (the January 4, 2013 deadline published online has been
    extended for this position only). Apply at:
