Dear Friends,

The attached PDF announces the position for the curator of our university
art gallery at CMU. The deadline for applications is coming up soon, on
September 17, so we're doing one last round of reminders to generate more
applications. It would be great if you could pass this along to any cool
curator-types you know. As a paid, salaried position with an
exhibition budget, it could be appealing for an independent
contemporary-arts curator looking for some stability and opportunity in an
inexpensive and livable city.

Thanks much!
Sincerely,
Golan Levin
Associate Professor of Electronic Art
Carnegie Mellon University
