Qualifications, Experience, and Attributes:

  • Candidates should be motivated, organized, and adaptable to working in a fast-paced creative environment.
  • Excellent computer skills (Microsoft Word, Excel, Teams, and internet research) are required.
  • Availability for event coverage during the entire summer concert series in July and August, which will contain a total of five (5) live shows. Weekday work hours will be adjusted accordingly for time spent working weekends and/or evening programs.
