Today is graduation at BYU, and many excellent student employees at the MOA are taking the next steps in their careers. We're going to miss them and their many contributions to the Museum, and today is for them. Here we honor the MOA graduating class of 2026!
Some of them reflected with us on their experiences here:
The MOA is hands-down the best place to be on campus. Some of my favorite college memories came from working there!
Paige Griffiths
I am so grateful for my experience here. I've met some of my best friends and made connections that I hope will last a lifetime. Being able to physically handle and take care of such cool artworks has been a dream, and I wish to do it for the rest of my career.
Sarah Jepsen
I have absolutely loved working at the Museum Store! It has been a refuge from my intense science classes. I have been able to meet new friends and have been able to expand my world view through art. It has been absolute privilege to work with Cheri Koford and the rest of the museum staff!
Elisabeth Christensen
Working at the MOA has always been a learning experience. I have always enjoyed my time working here and will look back with fondness on the wonderful opportunity that working here has been. I especially loved working in galleries with Religious and Roman art as those speak to my soul!
Ryan Ridgway
May God bless each and every one of you. The world eagerly awaits the wonderful things you go forth to do now!
