The Museum of Science and Industry is accepting applications for its Month at the Museum competition. The winner will live at the museum from Oct. 19 to Nov. 17 and get to roam the 14-acre museum at will. They will also get $10,000 for interacting with visitors, blogging, tweeting and posting videos about the experience. Applications are due July 22, and require a one-minute video. Museum vice president Rob Gallas says they're looking for adventuresome people with a thirst for knowledge. Last year Chicago theater artist Kate McGroarty beat out 1,500 other applications to win the contest. __ Online: www.msichicago.org You are receiving this email because you subscribed to this feed at blogtrottr.com.
