Curator Role: Newlyn Art Gallery

Newlyn Art Gallery and The Exchange are looking for an early-career curator with lived experience of disability to join their team.

They recognise that disabled people are too often under-represented or absent from gallery programming; typically their work is not sought out by programmers, and they are rarely involved in programme selection in galleries and other arts organisations. But Newlyn Art Gallery and The Exchange, and other arts organisations across the country are committed to change.

As part of this commitment, they have partnered with DASH to deliver The Future Curato​​​​​​​rs Programme, a residency programme for Disabled curators within visual arts institutions.

The purpose of the role is to support an emerging curator to develop a range of skills and experiences in a real world, gallery context. You will join their programme team and will be supported in developing new programmes across both our sites, and in other situations.
