Summary

Advancing that mission of connection and inclusivity, the Hurford Center Post-Bac Fellowship is an entry-level position for someone with a demonstrated interest in the arts and humanities.

About The Position

The Post-Baccalaureate Fellow position has two primary components:

• Exhibitions Support and Personal Program Development: The Post-Bac Fellow works with the Associate Director, Cantor Fitzgerald Gallery, VCAM (Visual Culture, Arts, and Media), and Campus Exhibitions to facilitate student, staff, and faculty-generated exhibitions in the College’s VCAM facility, the home and programmatic partner of the Hurford Center for the Arts and Humanities. The Fellow meets regularly with students, faculty, and staff to help conceptualize exhibition projects, later helping to install, deinstall, and otherwise facilitate these exhibitions, as well as support the Associate Director with similar work at the Center’s primary exhibition space, the Cantor Fitzgerald Gallery.
• Hurford Center Staff: The Post-Bac Fellow serves as part of the broader Hurford Center staff, generally assisting the Hurford Center team with event support, as well as attending staff meetings and serving on the Center’s Steering Committee, where they will review student and faculty grant applications. The Post-Bac Fellow also assists Hurford Center staff in mentoring the Center’s Student Advisory Board in reviewing and approving Student Arts Fund grants.
  
  

This is a two-year, full-time position, upon review by their supervisor at the end of the first year. Since some of the Center’s programming takes place outside of the regular workweek hours (evenings and weekends), the position requires some schedule flexibility. Candidates must have a valid driver’s license and will participate in college van certification as part of their role.
