Known for its academic rigor, student-centered ethos, and culture of innovation, the College offers an environment where faculty, students, and staff collaborate across disciplines to advance knowledge, cultivate creativity, and address complex societal challenges.

Positioned as both a premier destination for American and contemporary art and a catalyst for interdisciplinary inquiry, the Museum plays a critical role in shaping the intellectual, artistic, and civic life of the College, region, and the field. The Museum seeks a dynamic, collaborative, and engaging leader to serve as the Carolyn Muzzy Director and lead the Museum into its next ambitious chapter.

The Director will be passionate about the role of art in American society. They will be an engaging and visionary leader adept at building relationships with a wide range of constituents, including students, faculty, administration, artists, residents, community members, members of the Colby College Board of Trustees and Museum Board of Governors, collectors, and donors. The Director will continue to build a distinctive national profile for the Museum and expand connections with major art museums around the U.S. and globally, as well as with other academic and peer institutions.

This role is a permanent, full-time position located in Waterville, Maine, with an expected starting base salary in the range of $280,000 to $320,000, commensurate with experience and qualifications for the position.

Screening of complete applications will begin immediately and continue until the completion of the search process. Inquiries, nominations, referrals, and CVs with cover letters should be sent in confidence via the Isaacson, Miller website.
