Museum Curator I (Artworks Educator)

The fundamental reason this classification exists is to manage the daily operations of the Museum’s ARTWORKS interactive gallery.  The ARTWORKS Educator designs and maintains exhibits; facilitates exploratory learning; plans, organizes, and directs educational programs; participates in tours with the guidance of the Curator III; and ensures the best visitor experiences. This is professional museum work requiring the independent application of basic communication techniques used in mid-size museum programs. The essential functions are: maintains the interactive ARTWORKS gallery; develops and coordinates educational programs for young learners; and accepts additional assignments and performs administrative duties and referred tasks.  The ARTWORKS Educator reports to the Museum Curator III, Curator of Education.   

Graduation from a four-year college or university and at least one year of experience in Museum or Education related professional work.
