Description

Help bring art into new public spaces — and be part of building something from the ground up.

The Kouba Gallery has been invited to host a monthly popup gallery at the Downtown Sheraton, and we are looking for a Popup Gallery Coordinator to help shape and guide this new initiative.

This is a relationship-centered, supported role — ideal for someone who enjoys coordinating creative work, working with artists, and helping something meaningful grow over time.


What You’ll Do

  • Coordinate a monthly 4-hour popup gallery experience
  • Help issue artist calls and build a bench of participating artists
  • Coordinate basic logistics (setup, timing, flow of the event)
  • Support light marketing coordination (ensuring events are shared and visible)
  • Help staff the popup and ensure a welcoming experience
  • Participate in a monthly Tuesday evening Kouba Gallery committee meeting

You will not be doing this alone — you’ll be supported by the Kouba Gallery team.


Time Commitment

  • Approximately 6–10 hours per month
  • Includes:
    • Monthly popup event (4 hours)
    • Light coordination before/after
    • Monthly Tuesday evening committee meeting

This Role Is a Great Fit If You:

  • Enjoy organizing creative projects and bringing people together
  • Are comfortable communicating with artists and collaborators
  • Like being part of something in development, not just maintaining
  • Want a meaningful role without a full-time commitment
  • Care about the intersection of art, nature, and community

Why You’ll Love This Role

  • Be part of launching a new public-facing gallery experience
  • Build relationships with artists and creative organizations
  • Gain experience in arts coordination and community programming
  • Join a thoughtful, mission-driven team shaping how art connects to place

Why This Matters

This initiative expands the Kouba Gallery beyond its walls — bringing art, conversation, and connection into new spaces. The right person in this role helps make that possible.
