Nick DelDuca, the Exclusive Tours intern this year, holds a BA in History from Montana State University, along with minors in Museum Studies and Religious Studies. Nick went on to earn a master’s degree in Museum Studies from Cooperstown, New York.
While interning at the Center of the West, Nick has rediscovered his love of working closely with the public and developing relationships with not only the people he’s touring and working with, but with the exhibits themselves.
The experience has been more personal than he expected—especially because Exclusive Tours provides experiences that aren’t scripted, enabling him to get to know guests on a deeper level. The Center offers unique opportunities tailored to individual interests.
Nick wishes to further explore careers centered in collections and exhibit design. His interests are in military and western history.
In his free time, Nick is a board game fanatic—he owns an extensive collection himself and has been the vice president of a board game club. He also enjoys hiking, nature, trying new things, and exploring his creativity.
