The Field Museum plans to open a new permanent exhibition on Native North
America. It will directly incorporate the voices of Native Americans
through collaboration and will highlight the cultural and historical
experiences of diverse communities of Native Americans. By providing a
broader socio-historical context, the exhibition will illustrate diverse
cultural traditions, practices, and histories of the first peoples of North
America as well as provide access to contemporary issues and creativity
within Native communities.

As part of this exhibition, the Museum will hire one Assistant Collections
Manager and two Collections Assistants. These are full-time (35-hours per
week), term positions that will run until June 2021. The individuals in
these positions will participate in the deinstallation of the current
Native North American exhibition hall as well as in the development and
preparation of the new exhibition. They will work closely with Anthropology
collections and conservation staff to assist with object housing,
photography, movement and tracking, as well as data management. They will
assist with research and cultural heritage visits, tours, and special
events related to the exhibition. Preference will be given to qualified
applicants of Native American heritage. The deadline for application is
being extended to April 6, 2018.
