Associate Educator, Public Engagement

Are you a storyteller, a facilitator, and a lifelong learner with a passion for making modern art accessible to everyone? The Museum of Modern Art is seeking an energetic and collaborative Associate Educator to join our Department of Learning and Engagement. In this role, you will play a vital part in fulfilling our founding mission by helping diverse audiences—from students and families to lifelong learners—connect deeply with the art of our time. If you thrive on asking thought-provoking questions, facilitating creative dialogue, and exploring how art can add profound value to everyday lives, this is your opportunity to launch your career within one of the world’s most iconic cultural institutions.

As an Associate Educator, you will bridge the gap between complex art historical concepts and the lived experiences of our visitors, working across the Museum to create inclusive, hands-on, and intellectually stimulating experiences. This position is perfect for a creative professional who is eager to experiment with new pedagogical approaches, collaborate with multidisciplinary teams, and contribute to a vibrant community of educators. You will not just be teaching; you will be helping our public find their own voice and agency within the galleries. Join us at MoMA to help shape the future of museum education and inspire the next generation of art lovers.
