Project Assistant: Wellington Collaboratorium

Enjoy Gallery is currently seeking a volunteer Project Administrator to join our team of two, for 6 hours per week, for a period of approximately three months. The Project Assistant will help Enjoy realise an exciting international art project taking place in Wellington in June, 2010 with New York based artist and writer Gregory Sholette.

In collaboration with Sondra Bacharach of Victoria University's School of Philosophy, Enjoy will bring Sholette to Wellington to undertake a period of residence, during which his project -- The Wellington Collaboratorium -- will take place. The project will include a series of public art works, talks, lectures, and a public panel discussion. The Project Administrator will help us to organise and administer the various public facets of this exciting project.

This is a personal development opportunity, as the Project Administrator will have a hands-on role in all areas of the project from development to realisation. The Administrator will work directly with the artist and the Enjoy team in roles as diverse as helping source sponsorship, to assisting with management of public seminars, production of the work, and to contributing to the subsequent publication. The successful applicant will be an independent worker, have excellent written and oral communication skills and attention to detail. Previous arts management experience is not necessary, but an interest in art and communications is crucial, and relevant qualification - or part thereof - in Visual Arts is desired. The position is for 6 hours per week, comprised of both mentored and self-directed work. The work times are flexible. This is an unpaid internship position. If you think you’re the right person to assist on this exciting project, please send your current CV and a cover letter to siv@enjoy.org.nz.
