We believe these activities are essential to continuously and courageously revitalize equity, justice, and belonging. Our work both internally and externally is guided by our core values: joy, equity, curiosity, community, and accessibility.

Through public literary programs, arts education programs, and community partnerships, SAL brings people together around the power of words and ideas.

Position Overview:
The Chief of Staff serves as an internal organizational architect and a trusted strategic partner to the Executive Director and Leadership Team at Seattle Arts & Lectures. This role is responsible for supporting the translation of vision into execution, advancing SAL’s strategic plan, and ensuring the smooth operation of the Executive Director’s office and the organization as a whole. This role is primarily internally focused, ensuring that SAL’s people, structures, systems, workflows, and culture are aligned, sustainable, and built for long-term impact.

The position is intentionally designed with the following allocation of focus: 40% Organizational Effectiveness, Culture, & Employee Lifecycle; 40% Strategic Implementation & Operational Infrastructure; and 20% Executive Partnership & Leadership Enablement. The Chief of Staff translates the Executive Director’s vision into infrastructure, strengthens organizational health, establishes a strong rhythm of business, and ensures that strategy moves from planning to disciplined execution across the organization.

This role requires a leader with exceptional emotional intelligence who can navigate complexity, build trust across teams, and steward culture with clarity and care. While principally internally facing, the Chief of Staff serves as Acting Executive Director during planned or temporary absences, representing SAL with board members, funders, and community stakeholders as needed.

• Translate strategic priorities into clear workplans with defined milestones, ownership, timelines, and accountability.
• Drive cross-functional alignment and ensure disciplined follow-through across departments.
• Monitor progress against strategic benchmarks and advise on adjustments in sequencing,
timelines, and resources as needed.
• Partner closely with the Director of Finance & Operations to integrate budgeting, forecasting, and financial analysis into implementation.
• Partner closely with the Director of Finance & Operations to strengthen operational systems including budgeting processes, IT infrastructure, and vendor management.
• Lead time-bound special initiatives that support the organization’s strategic growth, inclusive of a move to a new office space.
• Identify structural inefficiencies and lead continuous improvement initiatives.
• Ensure major initiatives are delivered on time, within budget, and aligned with organizational priorities.

Executive Partnership & Organizational Design (20%)
• Serve as a trusted strategic advisor and thought partner to the Executive Director and the
Leadership Team on complex organizational, cultural, or structural matters.
• Help clarify decision-making frameworks, accountability structures, and organizational design.
• Lead preparation and design of leadership and all-staff meetings, ensuring agendas, materials, and facilitation reinforce alignment and accountability.
• Lead preparation of board materials, including strategic framing, financial context, and progress reporting.
• Support executive messaging and ensure alignment with the organization’s mission, values, and brand.
• Help set prioritization and access to ensure that the Executive Director’s time is focused on the highest-leverage opportunities.
• Serve as Acting Executive Director during Executive Director absences.

Diverse Workforce statement:
SAL values a diverse workforce and an inclusive culture in all areas of our work and culture. SAL is an equal opportunity employer. We recognize that opportunities in the arts have historically excluded and continue to disproportionately exclude Black and Indigenous people, people of color, people from working class backgrounds, people with disabilities, and LGBTQIA+ people. We strongly encourage individuals with these identities to apply. Strong candidates will bring a diverse set of skills, characteristics, and experiences, both professional and lived. SAL focuses on a holistic view of potential candidates and understanding that no single candidate will offer every desired skill and characteristic.
The following offers an aspirational view of the ideal candidate profile, and we encourage applications from candidates with a wide range of experiences and backgrounds.

Minimum Qualifications:

• Demonstrated experience in organizational design, systems thinking, and change management.
• Experience overseeing HR functions and the full employee lifecycle.
• Exceptional project management, financial acumen, and strategic execution skills.
• Demonstrated high emotional intelligence, including strong self-awareness, sound judgment, discretion, and the ability to navigate sensitive situations with empathy and clarity.
• Exceptional interpersonal and communication skills with the ability to build trust across all levels of the organization.

Desired Qualifications:
• Deep commitment to equity, inclusion, and anti-racism.
• Demonstrated ability to represent an organization credibly when serving in an executive capacity.
• Highly organized, proactive, adaptable, and comfortable with ambiguity; brings both strategic perspective and operational rigor.
• Enthusiasm for the literary arts and SAL’s mission.

Additional Considerations:
• Evening/weekend hours required (typically 3-5 times per month, September to June).
• This is an on-location position in Seattle. We are, unfortunately, not able to provide relocation assistance for this position.

Description

King County Water and Land Resources Division (WLRD) is redesigning White Center Ponds to create a safer, more welcoming space while improving water quality and community health.

4Culture is partnering with WLRD in seeking five artists to create two-dimensional designs for display along walkways at the White Center Ponds stormwater facility and green space. The artists will each have a year-long exhibition of their designs that celebrate the facility and this special place.

The group of artists will — independently and together — explore the pond’s ecology and consider local history, culture, and the diverse communities of the area. There is also potential for health and climate resilience to inform and inspire the artist’s designs. During the project orientation selected artists will meet with several White Center community groups and learn from WLRD staff about local ecology and the stormwater process. No community engagement after the orientation is required. If active engagement (such as workshops or other activities) is part of the selected artist’s process for design development, an additional stipend of up to $3,000 is available for that work.

The opening celebration will kick off a series of five year-long solo exhibitions featuring each artist’s site-specific designs. The exact total number of banners to be displayed on site is still to be determined, but each of the five designs will be printed and displayed 2-3 times for a total of 10-15 banners per artist.

Each artist will deliver five unique, yet stylistically similar banner designs (approximately 36” tall x 18” wide, exact dimensions to be determined) in the form of high-quality digital files that meet technical specifications outlined by the fabricator. An additional $2,000 stipend is available for this digital file work which can be completed by the selected artist, their subcontractor, or 4Culture subcontractor.

4Culture will select the fabricator and manage the fabrication, oversite and installation of the artwork, making this an ideal project for an emerging artist or an artist new to the field of public art.

Submission of an online application is required for this opportunity.

About South End Stories
South End Stories is an arts education organization based out of Seattle, WA. South End Stories’ (SES) mission is to ignite joy and justice in classrooms and communities using arts-based learning, anti-racist education, and social activism. Our vision is liberation through storytelling and the arts. We support culturally sustaining and anti-racist facilitation for youth through trauma-conscious, arts-based programming that centers student voices, validates their experiences, and creates safe healing spaces for creative expression and identity exploration. We work holistically with youth, teachers, and families to reshape the school climate into an environment that is welcoming and relevant for all. Our various programs for ages K-12 are based in visual arts, film, theatre, and movement.
We are especially interested in artists with experience in Theatre of the Oppressed, devising, improvisation, and socially engaged theater practices who believe in the power of art to build community and imagine new futures.
A Teaching Artist with experience in Theatre of the Oppressed can hold space for difficult conversations without steering them. A skilled practitioner knows how to create an environment where young people feel safe enough to engage honestly, while never sanitizing or softening the real conditions of their lives.
Comfort with non-linear, participant-driven processes: this work rarely goes exactly as planned, and that is by design.
Deep facilitation skills: the ability to guide a room without dominating it, and to respond in the moment when something unexpected or emotionally charged surfaces.
An understanding of how race, class, gender, immigration status, and other systems of power show up in the room and in the work.
The Teen Theatre Intensive explores how theater can connect people, elevate voices, and support young people in expressing their ideas about the world around them. The program focuses on helping students develop practical theater skills while engaging in collaborative creation and storytelling.
Rather than focusing on producing a fully polished show, the program centers process, experimentation, and ensemble-building, culminating in a creative sharing of work developed during the intensive. Students will explore a range of theater techniques—including improvisation, movement, monologue work, and devising—while gaining a deeper understanding of what it means to create theater collectively.
The Theater Teaching Artist will collaborate closely with two other teaching artists (theater and dance), a vocal coach who works with students twice a week, and a program coordinator providing logistical support.
Schedule & Time Commitment
Program dates: July 27 – August 21
There will be staff meetings and gatherings through end of August
Daily program hours: 10:00 AM – 3:00 PM
Teaching artists should plan to arrive approximately 30–60 minutes before the program day for preparation, and stay 30–60 minutes after some sessions for reflection and team coordination as needed (schedule can be flexible). This time is also paid at the same hourly rate.
Additional planning time for sessions you facilitate are also compensated at the hourly rate. South End Stories allocates one hour of planning time per session facilitated, but this is flexible based on need.

Planning & Meetings:
April-June: Approximately one 60 minute meeting per week
July 1st- July 24th : two to three 60 minute meetings per week
July 27th-August 21st: planning meetings as needed before and after programming
Responsibilities
Facilitate theater workshops centered on ensemble-building, improvisation, and collaborative creation.
Collaborate with other teaching artists to introduce students to core theater concepts and language, including stage presence, monologue work, and character exploration.
Support students in using their bodies, voices, and imagination to tell stories and build theatrical worlds.
Incorporate Theatre of the Oppressed and other participatory theater techniques into unit plans and performance practices.
Help guide a devising process where students collaboratively develop material throughout the intensive.
Collaborate with the dance teaching artist and vocal coach to integrate movement, music, and performance techniques.
Foster a supportive, inclusive, and youth-centered creative environment.
Participate in planning and reflection with the teaching team.
Co-create Theater of the Oppressed professional development activities in collaboration with the Director of Education for other Teaching Artists, post-programming.
Program Support & Logistics:
Support with daily program operations such as setting up and resetting the space
Assist with student check-in and attendance
Help monitor student safety and well-being throughout the day
Support snack and lunch transitions as needed
Work collaboratively with staff to ensure a smooth and welcoming daily flow
Ideal Qualifications
Experience working as a Teaching Artist with high school youth
Background in Theatre of the Oppressed, devised theater, applied theater, improvisation, or socially engaged performance practices
Strong facilitation and ensemble-building skills
Experience guiding collaborative creative processes with high school youth
Interest in helping youth connect art-making with community, storytelling, and self-expression
Ability to collaborate with artists from multiple disciplines (dance, music, theater)
Commitment to equity, inclusion, and youth empowerment
Compensation
Starting at $35/hour, depending on experience
Paid hours include program time, planning time, and coordination with the teaching team
