Joan Tisch Teaching Fellow

Whitney Museum of American Art

New York, NY • On-site

$150/hr

Contractor

Re-posted 4 days ago

Job description

The Joan Tisch Teaching Fellows Program offers graduate students pursuing advanced degrees in art and art history the unique opportunity to work directly with the Whitney Museum's collection and audiences within a community of academic support. Participants in the program design tours and talks on the Whitney's collection and temporary exhibitions for museum visitors and more advanced Teaching Fellows also have opportunities to propose topical tours, lectures, and courses drawing on their own scholarship for special membership groups and public program audiences. Fellows also meet for workshops for feedback and support on their scholarly work and for training in teaching, communication and presentation skills, or other professional development topics.
This selective program offers an invaluable opportunity for students to develop skills for public speaking without notes, communicating sophisticated ideas in a clear and organized fashion to general audiences, and finding their own authentic voice. Alumni of the program, who have gone on to a range of prestigious positions in museums and academia, often reference how these skills benefited them throughout their careers.
Requirements
  • Must be a graduate student currently enrolled in a Ph.D. program in Art History or a related field, finishing their coursework or working toward the completion of their dissertation.
  • Students specializing in areas covered by the Museum's collection are given special consideration, but this is not a prerequisite for selection.
  • We are seeking diverse perspectives on American Art of the 20th and 21st Century, including Latinx and American indigenous perspectives. We are especially looking for candidates who are able to offer tours in both Spanish and English.
Details
Fellows are offered a base pay of $600 a month to support the learning opportunities of the program in addition to per tour pay of $150 per hour for private and specialized tours and $115 for public tours. Fellows also have the potential for further pay for courses, special programs, membership lectures, and other projects.
Fellowships are ideally for a period of three years, with a minimum commitment of two years. During this period, Fellows are expected to live in or near New York City as the role is in-person on site. We are currently accepting applications for a Fellow to start in the fall of 2026.
We are dedicated to considering a broad array of candidates. Whether you're new to arts and culture administration, returning to work after a gap in employment, simply looking to transition, or take the next step in your career path, we will be glad to have you on our radar. Please use your cover letter to tell us about your interest in the arts and culture space and what you hope to bring to this role.
