We are looking for a young person who: - has a biology/zoology background, - is not afraid of hard work, - has stable hands (many items are fragile, so they need to be handled with care), - is detail-oriented (preparing an exhibit is no joke, everything must be correct), - is creative. It is important to note that a person must have no allergies since working with exhibits involves dust!
