Opportunities

Want to become part of the team?

Please send cover letters and resumes to opportunities@henryart.org unless noted otherwise.

The Henry is committed to racial diversity and inclusion. Qualified individuals who bring diverse perspectives to the workplace are encouraged to apply.

Volunteering

We are not accepting new volunteer applications at this time. The Henry needs volunteers on occasion to assist during events and exhibition openings. Henry volunteers get free admission to these events and the opportunity to meet people in the field—and earn our everlasting gratitude.

Thank you for your interest in volunteering. Please check back here for future opportunities.
