Role Description

The Community Data Collection Intern is a part-time, on-site role based in Coral Gables, FL. This role focuses on gathering, organizing, and documenting community feedback and engagement data to inform an Urban Agriculture Evaluation Framework initiative for Vizcaya Museum & Gardens. Day-to-day tasks include setting up several data collection stations at the farmers market, conversing and collecting information from visitors at a year-round farmers market, managing ambient data stations, documenting community interactions, and contributing to a federal cohort grant report due at the end of September 2026. The role itself requires in-person presence on Sundays (starting as soon as possible) from 8:30-3:00 pm until September 27th.

This is not a data entry position.

This position is intentionally designed as a learning experience—you will understand the reasoning behind every method and build skills that are directly transferable to graduate school, education research, program evaluation, and community-facing careers.
