On June 5, 2008, this group of corporate leaders held their annual selection dinner and toured their current selection, Rembrandt’s Etchings: The Embrace of Darkness and Light. They watched presentations for three upcoming exhibitions and after two rounds of voting, finally made their decision. Since 1999, the BEC has raised more than $1,000,000 to underwrite exhibitions, bringing masterpieces to Hampton Roads. If your company is interested in becoming a part of the leading corporate support group of the Chrysler Museum of Art, the Council always welcomes new Members.

INTERNS: BEYOND THE GALLERIES Each semester, students from across the mid-Atlantic region experience the Chrysler Museum beyond the galleries. We offer interns the opportunity to get hands-on experience working in various departments throughout the building. The Chrysler also gives students experience in finance, special events, registration, and communications. During this past summer, we were pleased to invite 14 students and recent graduates, all with a range of talents and diverse backgrounds, to support our work. Interns Gabrielle Barr and Luke McDonald at the Historic Houses Under the supervision of a Chrysler staff member, interns contribute to projects in their assigned departments and acquire skills necessary for future careers.
