Our gallery monitors make our organization run smoothly on a daily basis. These are the individuals who have a general knowledge base of our mission and our programming at 701 CCA. Most importantly, they interact with gallery visitors and make sure they walk away with a positive experience and an intention to return. Here’s a little more information about what our gallery monitors do:
● Open the gallery at the beginning of the day and/or lock and secure it at the end of the day. Opening and closing procedures will vary with each exhibition.
● Greet visitors at the gallery entrance and obtain zip code information.
● Provide information about the current exhibition on view and answer any questions the visitors may have.
● Encourage visitors to become members at 701 CCA and explain various membership offerings to them.
Gallery monitors are welcome to bring a book or their laptop to read or work while watching the gallery.
Free Wi-Fi.
