Become one of our New Curators in 2025

Are you interested in preserving history and culture to make it shareable and accessible for everyone? If you can see yourself working in museums, archaeology, arts organisations and charities, libraries, archives, historic buildings or historic sites, the UCL New Curators Project could be the perfect fit for you.

Run by UCL Special Collections and Newham Heritage Month, ten successful applicants will get the chance to develop skills and experience relevant to jobs in the cultural heritage sector. You don't need a degree or to have worked in the sector already, and it's a friendly, fun way of learning about this field and taking your first steps towards a career.

Previous applicants have gone on to work for organisations such as Toynbee Hall, Tate and The Roundhouse as well as at UCL. Applications must be submitted by 8pm on Saturday 15 February with New Curator Project 2025 activities beginning from March 4 and ending on June 24 2025.
