Job description

Arlpwe Art & Culture Centre

Ali Curung, NT | Kaytetye Country
$60,000–$85,000 p.a. + allowances and entitlements | Start date negotiable

Work where culture, art and community come together.

Arlpwe is looking for a Studio Coordinator to join their team and work alongside an extraordinary group of Aboriginal artists and Elders.

This is a hands-on role at the centre of a community-owned art practice with real momentum.

Arlpwe artists are exhibiting nationally, winning major prizes, building important collections and getting noticed across the Australian art world. With major exhibitions and art fairs ahead, there’s never been a more exciting time to join them.

You’ll be part of it.

Working closely with artists and the wider Arlpwe team, you’ll help keep the studio moving — supporting artists, coordinating creative activity, preparing work for exhibition and helping take their stories and work to new audiences.

Arlpwe is 100% community-owned and based in Ali Curung, representing Kaytetye, Alyawarr, Warlpiri and Warumungu language groups.

You are:

• Creative, organised and seriously hands-on
• Great with people and confident working across a busy studio
• Curious, adaptable and culturally respectful
• Excited by contemporary Aboriginal art and artist-led practice

Join Arlpwe and work with artists doing important things — in a place where the work really matters.

Bring your energy. Bring your skills. Bring your curiosity. Make things happen.
