Contemporary Museum, Baltimore seeks an Executive Director

The Contemporary Museum, Baltimore presents the art of our time in
collaboration with artists and institutions. In 1999, ten years
following its incorporated as a nomadic institution without walls or a
collection, the Contemporary Museum acquired a permanent facility to

new Fellowship program in which curators and artists are selected to use
Baltimore as a laboratory for program development.

leadership in the management of a dynamic organization in the process of
change and growth.  A rich history of institutional collaboration
provides the Executive Director with opportunities for exhibition and
program development with leading institutions such as the Walters Art
Museum, the Baltimore Museum of Art, and the Maryland Historical
Society.

History or other related field, strong communication and public speaking
