"The Museum of Science and Industry, Chicago is looking for "you." And by "you," we mean an adventurous, outgoing person with a strong interest in learning about science and the world around her or him, plus the ability to write engagingly about your experiences. Ideally, you're also the web-savvy sort who can keep your thumb out of frame when taking photographs. If that "you" sounds like you, or if you are simply curious about this intriguing endeavor, then you should read on.
We're looking for someone to take on a once-in-a-lifetime assignment: spend a Month at the Museum, to live and breathe science 24/7 for 30 days. From October 20 to November 18, 2010, this person's mission will be to experience all the fun and education that fits in this historic 14-acre building, living here and reporting your experience to the outside world. There will be plenty of time to explore the Museum and its exhibits after hours, with access to rarely seen nooks and crannies of this 77-year-old institution.
Sure, it's a commitment. But if you are chosen and can successfully complete Month at the Museum, you'll walk away with a prize of $10,000, a package of tech gadgets, and new knowledge and experiences that may just transform you.
Excellent writing skills are a must. Experience with speaking in public, media interviews and blogging are ideal. An outgoing nature will help when interacting with our guests and making public appearances. For your reporting via blog, Twitter and online video, some Web savvy and photography skills are also plusses."
