GOMA Gallery of Modern Art Waterford is inviting applications for its 2025 Emerging Curator Award.
The Award is designed to provide a platform for emerging curators to research and engage. The curator will arrange a month long exhibition. The exhibition venue will be GOMA Gallery, Waterford. The paid opportunity is open to emerging curators that have knowledge and experience of contemporary visual arts in Ireland and beyond.
The successful candidate will work with the team at GOMA to realise the exhibition.
The curator will not only utilise our existing networks but will also establish new relationships. The curator will be supported by the team at GOMA and work closely with them to manage all aspects of the exhibition and events.
The curator must research and engage the artists to be a part of the exhibitions and organise the logistics for each exhibition including managing exhibition budgets, with assistance from the team; compiling the marketing material and communications; organising at least one group / public visit or workshop per exhibition, with an inclusive engagement approach towards diverse communities.
