This is a part-time, 28-hours-a-week job without benefits.

Our ideal candidate is someone with an interest in and awareness of the vast arts and cultural happenings in the East Bay — not just the exhibits at the Berkeley Art Museum and Oakland Museum of California, but also the plays staged in small black-box theaters, the sushi classes, seed swaps, architectural tours, bike parties, and bird-watching outings happening in all corners of the region. Applicants must be organized; detail-oriented; discerning; have an aptitude for data entry; and be able to write clean, compelling content.

Applicants should send a résumé, three relevant clips, and a letter explaining why you’re right for the job to Co-Editor Kathleen Richards at Kathleen[dot]Richards[at]eastbayexpress[dot]com. No phone calls, please.
