ARTE NOIR ADMINISTRATIVE ASSISTANT POSITION DESCRIPTION

Job Title: Administrative Assistant

Status: Full-Time

Reports To: Executive Director

Start Date: TBD

Organization Overview

ARTE NOIR celebrates and sustains Black art, artists, and culture by cultivating inclusive spaces, fostering opportunities, and honoring the diversity and vitality of Black creativity.

Originally launched as an online publication in May 2021, ARTE NOIR was created to spotlight the vibrant creativity stemming from African and African American culture. Incorporated as a nonprofit organization in June 2021, ARTE NOIR expanded its vision with the opening of a permanent space at Midtown Square in Seattle’s Central District in 2022.

This physical space complements the online publication and includes:

A fine art gallery, anchoring connections to the Black community and creating a permanent home for Black art and artists.
A retail space, highlighting the dynamic creativity of the Black arts community locally, nationally, and internationally.
A makerspace, expanding opportunities for artistic training and creation.
A recording studio, providing young people with access to audio and music production resources.

Through its programs and spaces, ARTE NOIR continues to champion the richness of Black creativity while fostering meaningful connections within the community. One of the many ways that ARTE NOIR fosters community connections is by programming meaningful activities and events, in the public square adjacent to the physical location. These programs are free and open to the public – both residents of Midtown Square and the broader community.
