SoEx Off-Site Curatorial Intern

Under the supervision of Exhibitions Program Manager and the Executive Director, the SoEx Off-Site Curatorial Intern receives, organizes, and prepares artist submissions sent in to the Off-Site program for SoEx's curatorial committee to review and eventually select an artist for the award. The Off-Site Curatorial Intern attends and takes minutes at all review meetings and will work with the Exhibitions Program Manager and committee to help develop the project, prepare artist contacts, and communicate with artists about their proposals by mail and phone. Due to high demand for this position, previous Southern Exposure interns are usually promoted to this position because they have an intimate knowledge of the organization's mission, structure, and administrative/computer system. Skills needed for this position are a proficiency in writing, attention to detail, ability to follow through with long-term projects, working within a committee structure, knowledge of contemporary artistic practices and a working knowledge of Microsoft Word, Excel, Photoshop and File Maker Pro. This position requires a one-year commitment.
