Te Tuhi offers one position as Curator of its exhibition and artist development programmes, with applications now open and due by Friday 11 April 2025. 


About the role

More than just a curatorial vision, this role is about fostering a collaborative dialogue between curator and artist—an open space for experimentation, the development of new ideas, and the production of new work. With strong support from the Exhibitions Programme Manager, the curator will engage deeply with a culturally diverse range of artists, both emerging and established, supporting them at various stages of their careers while building long-term relationships within local and international communities.

The curator will commission artistic projects and lead the delivery of four seasons of exhibitions per year, scheduled 12 months in advance to allow for strategic planning, fundraising, and audience engagement. The curator will also manage Te Tuhi’s artist development initiatives, including its studio and residency programmes, as well as the curatorial internship programme based at the Parnell project space, which nurtures emerging curatorial perspectives.

Additionally, the curator will play a key role in shaping communications and community programmes, extending Te Tuhi’s reach and enhancing its reputation.
