ARCHIVE INTERN
2023 marks the Gallery’s 40th anniversary and we seek an intern interested in exploring and organizing the Gallery’s history in our physical and digital archive. With the physical archive, the intern will conduct research on the foundation of the Gallery in the early 80s and develop a cataloging checklist system. With the digital archive, the intern will recover and make public documentation lost in 2017 using the Wayback Machine.
COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT AND PUBLIC PROGRAMS
The Community Engagement and Public Programs Intern will provide support for our upcoming exhibitions, public programs, and community outreach across Chicago. The intern will also conduct tours, and invite potential and current partners to collaborate with the Gallery.
These internships require a commitment of 7–15 hours per week and are only open to UIC undergraduate students. They are funded by the UIC Chancellor’s Undergraduate Research Award and to be eligible, UIC students must have Federal Work-Study as part of their financial aid award.
TO APPLY: Send a résumé and cover letter to Denny Mwaura (dmwaura@uic.edu) with the name of the position and the semester + year in the subject line (ex: Community Engagement and Public Programs Internship Spring 2023). Deadline: December 17, 2022, 11:59 PM CT.

Call for Submissions – ENCOUNTER
Artist Jason Lazarus invites current and former Chicagoland artists to participate in a public art project at the Chicago Cultural Center they are organizing titled ENCOUNTER, running through January 15, 2023.
"The exhibition seeks to feature small handmade ‘drawings’ by current or former Chicago artist-residents visualizing a TRANSFORMATIVE encounter with a single artwork they had somewhere in Chicago while living in the city. This is a chance to acknowledge a work (and its maker) who helped us see what is possible, urgent, relevant, and liberating."
