Gallery assistant entitled to pay subsidy
Every year we are looking for an Gallery Assistant for a fixed-term contract. The job is part-time (65%) and includes evening and weekend shifts. Duties include customer service and supervision of the gallery, social media, website maintenance, hanging and opening of exhibitions. Knowledge of the arts and cultural training would be an advantage.
The person selected as a gallery assistant must be entitled to a salary subsidy for non-profit associations. An open application can be sent by e-mail to the Executive Director, but we recommend that you first check your own eligibility for a salary subsidy with the employment office.
You can submit an open job application to the director of Nykyaika.

Volunteering
Do you have a lot of spare time, and wish to do something new every now and then? Would you like to help for a few hours or on a couple of days? Or do you have something else in mind - your own project, to which you'd like a partner? Volunteering may be physically active such as delivering posters around the city, helping during opening night, technical work related to building or taking down exhibitions, or translator work (for our website, for example). Or something else - what would you like or know how to do? Tell us!
Go ahead and contact us and tell us how you'd like to participate!
