A degree or equivalent professional background in Art History, Curatorial Studies, or a related arts discipline is preferred.
Industry Knowledge: Deep subject knowledge is preferred. While prior teaching experience is an advantage, we are primarily seeking individuals with strong industry expertise. We are open to discussing how your unique background in research or the arts can be applied to this role.
Planning Skills: Ability to structure a narrative that connects classroom theory with “in-person” gallery observation.
Confident and clear communication skills, with the ability to engage a group in both a quiet classroom and a busy museum.
Team Player: A collaborative approach to work; you will be part of a supportive community of facilitators.
A genuine enthusiasm for making art history accessible and exciting for adult learners.
This is a fantastic opportunity to curate your own teaching schedule and share your passion for art in the world’s most famous galleries. We value your expertise and look forward to building a curriculum with you that enriches our community.
