To: "Mason, Michael" <MASONM at si.edu>


Hello,
The Smithsonian’s Center for Folklife and Cultural Heritage is hiring a curator in language revitalization, and as the Center’s director I would like you to share this opportunity with your colleagues and within your networks. At the Center, we are implementing a new strategic plan (attached), and our primary strategic goals include promoting cultural sustainability and vitality. I see this curator’s work on community-based language revitalization as a key piece of the Center’s future, and I think this curator will be a leader within the Center and in the field. In addition to carrying out independent research and revitalization efforts, the curator would work closely with colleagues around the Smithsonian on the Smithsonian-wide Recovering Voices initiative, coordinating this ongoing initiative. I have attached the position description for the open curatorial position to this email, and I hope you will share this information to help us in our search.
 
The job announcement with all the details can be found here:https://www.usajobs.gov/GetJob/ViewDetails/365526300
 
Please feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions.
 
Sincerely,
 
Michael Atwood Mason, Ph.D.
