Electronic Arts Intermix (EAI), founded in 1971 and now a leading nonprofit resource for artists’ video and media, seeks a Part-Time Communications Associate. This individual will promote and help to provide access to EAI’s internationally-renowned collection, with an emphasis on encouraging engagement with a broad public.

The work environment is supportive of a healthy work-life balance in the company of colleagues deeply engaged with art.

EAI’s key activity is the distribution and preservation of a now-canonical collection of artists’ video and media, ranging from some of the earliest uses of video and computer technologies to contemporary digital projects.

Proudly a small arts organization, EAI strives to adapt to significant emerging concerns, including major technology shifts and advances in accessibility measures.

A critical engagement with video and contemporary art and keen understanding of EAI’s mission and history will be indispensable. Excellent writing and graphic design skills are particularly sought after, as is experience working with Mailchimp, Adobe Suite (Premiere, Photoshop, and Illustrator), Instagram, Filemaker, and basic HTML.

  • Overseeing and maintaining EAI’s mailing list and press contacts, focusing on growth and dynamic engagement.
  • Assisting and supporting the project coordination and delivery of public programs and outreach initiatives.
  • Reporting on digital engagement metrics and translating this into actionable data and recommendations for staff.

  • Managing and updating EAI’s web homepage and events pages.
  • Writing and scheduling EAI’s eblast outreach for events and the promotion of new works/artists in distribution.

  • Facilitating image reproduction rights and general promotion requests.
  • Corresponding with EAI members, supporters and donors.
  • Assisting with the implementation of access programs and the development of resources for audiences with disabilities, including captioning, access inquiries, and organizational policies.
  • Keeping abreast of the vibrant community of media, performance, and moving-image centered spaces in NY.
  • General communication with scholars, students, educators, and artists to provide access to EAI’s preview site and archival resources.

Compensation/Benefits: This is a part-time position of 24 hours per week, starting at $30/hour. Schedule is hybrid and very flexible, and PTO is offered. Attendance at relevant events and exhibitions around the city is expected and supported.
