We are excited to welcome our two new interns this summer!

Joseph Earley, a rising junior at Southold Jr./Sr. High School, is our 2023 Bainbridge Intern. He has a strong interest in history, especially Medieval History and Greek Mythology. In his spare time, Joseph also enjoys reading.
———
Annabel Wood Kurman, a rising senior at Loyola School in Manhattan, is our 2023 Gardiner Young Scholar. She is especially interested in Ancient History and Archaeology. When Annabel has free time, she enjoys writing, playing the violin, and singing. (The Gardiner Young Scholar program is funded by a grant from the Robert D. L. Gardiner Foundation).

Already, both interns are hard at work serving as docents at the Maple Lane Complex and researching interesting artifacts to share through video. Please be sure to stop by the Complex to say hello!
