Hello, Students! Platform Artspace invites you to apply to be on the Spring 2020 Curatorial Board. This semester we will be working on the Night Market, an art/craft/performance event happening in May. Open to all majors! APPLICATION DUE DATE: FRIDAY, DEC 13, 5PM.
Platform Artspace has openings for members of the curatorial board for the Spring 2020 semester. The commitment is one semester, with an option to participate in the following semester. Curatorial board members must be current UC Berkeley graduate or undergraduate students whose field of study is in the arts (Art Practice, TDPS, Architecture, etc) or whose personal interests are in an area of creative practices (social practices art, AR/VR, gaming, curating, community engagement, comics and illustration, design, activism, etc).
In Spring 2020, Platform curators will focus on the Night Market, an event where the broader UC Berkeley community sells, barters, and trades handmade art, crafts, and zines in a celebratory environment with food and music. Board members also review artist proposals, work one 2-hour shift at Platform each week (gardening, painting, opening and closing the space), help produce events, and run the space. Board members take leadership roles at Platform and should be comfortable working collaboratively as well as leading independent projects in the space.
NOTE: Weekly curatorial board meetings will be held Thursdays from 1pm-2pm, and attendance is required.
