You should send your résumé to John Hasse (Curator, Culture & Art)/ hasse@si.edu) and cc: Omar Eaton-Martinez (eatonmo@si.edu) if you’re interested in being considered for the following spring opportunity – Deadline to submit résumé is November 21, 2012:
Division of Culture and the Arts – Music Collections Inventory and Photography
The junior fellow will advance a project (begun earlier with interns) to research and compile an inventory of music-related collections at the National Museum of American History. These collections are held not only by the Division of Culture and the Arts, but also by the Archives Center, Political History, Armed Forces, Mechanisms, and Home and Community Life. The project is part of a Smithsonian-wide music initiative begun with a Level One Consortia grant, and advocated and encouraged by the Smithsonian Institution’s Undersecretary of Art, History & Culture Richard Kurin. The junior fellow will also work with the curatorial staff to identify selected objects that have not been photographed (except for registrar purposes) and work with the NMAH photographers to get them individually photographed in the Photo Lab. The resulting pictures will be used on the NMAH website and made available to the larger Smithsonian Music initiative, one of whose goals is a website that brings together
music-related resources across the Institution. Stipend: $6000.
Ideally you should be available to start some time during the month of January 2013.
