Opportunities w/ Art History degree

Alright no jump scares intended with that title- I'm not asking how to be a M&A analyst with my background. Just curious if there are any opportunities at all in the industry that are attainable with an art history degree. Interned at one of the 2 major auction houses last summer in a BizDev department. Hoping to pivot. Just curious what, at all, is out there- doesn't have to be super high prestige or glamor, just attainable. I'd really appreciate anyone's thoughts at all.
