The Visual Arts & Education Manager exists to advance the education and community engagement programs for the RRCA.

This position oversees visual & teaching artists and volunteers.
The candidate should understand how to effectively manage a calendar and the logistics involved with planning visual arts exhibitions, annual education programs, and volunteer coordinating. This employee will also be working with multiple stakeholders to achieve their goals. They need to provide exceptional customer service through quality communication with educators, administrators, artists, parents, students, and other community members via phone, email, or in person interactions. A key to success is also promoting effective, helpful, and positive relations with employee working teams.
On occasion, the employee may need to train volunteers on their roles, which can be a collaborative effort with other team members or volunteers.
