The Center for Arts at the Armory is seeking a volunteer Exhibitions Coordinator to work in coordination with local artists to mount and promote exhibitions in our ROOTED Cafe space. Each exhibition typically lasts for six weeks, and includes at least one public reception at which the Exhibitions Coordinator would ideally be present and host a Gallery Walk / Artist Talk / Q & A in collaboration with the exhibiting artist.
The Exhibitions Coordinator will assist in doing outreach within the artist community to build a schedule of gallery shows for our Café. This individual will coordinate with artists on hanging and displaying their work in our Café, build a calendar of exhibitions for the year, and assist in promoting these shows. The Exhibitions Coordinator will work with the Co-Director/CEO to ensure that shows fit the goals of The Center for the Arts at the Armory, and maintain high standards while being community-oriented and representative of our diverse artist community.
We are looking to work with your schedule to make the position fit, and the hours are not set. You may be heavily involved while handling the transition between shows, and then have very little or no hours of work while the show is up and running. You will have the opportunity to bring your aesthetic and knowledge to the table in helping build the schedule, and will be given the opportunity to be creative in the displaying of work.
To apply, email director@artsatthearmory.org with your qualifications and a bit about yourself by December 1, 2023. Check out our website for more information about exhibitions at the Cafe: https://artsatthearmory.org/exhibit/
