Over the past decade, MAG has become Rochester’s most dynamic and exciting cultural institution, making important contributions to broader conversations regarding museum practice, specifically regarding the role art museums play in their communities, as well how contemporary art and artists engage with those communities. The Mary W. and Donald R.

The Director also collaborates closely with the University on all aspects of the MAG’s operations and is a department of the University reporting through the Office of the Provost. MAG’s culture of equity and inclusion is at the heart of its growth and success in advancing its mission. As the permanent collection has become more diverse and reflective of the community the museum serves, so too has MAG’s Board of Managers, its staff, and its audience. Nurturing a culture of inclusion and equity is a part of MAG’s overarching strategy and every aspect of its daily operations.

Identify, cultivate, and generate significant financial support, working with the Board of Managers, University staff, and MAG staff to implement MAG’s short- and long-term advancement plans. Expand ties to the philanthropic, governmental, university, and civic communities. In coordination with the appropriate staff of the museum and the University, develop and present an annual operating budget as well as capital, program, and project budgets to the Board of Managers; monitor the implementation of the budget and oversee financial analysis and forecasting throughout the fiscal year. Provide dynamic community leadership to enhance the visibility of MAG and its reputation as an exceptional cultural, economic, community, and university resource; bring the joy and relevance of art to MAG’s current and future constituencies. Empower staff and ensure that there is a cohesive team, all working in the same direction, willing and able to share new ideas and try new ways to solve future problems. Candidate Profile Top candidates will possess an energetic and entrepreneurial leadership style with a passion for art as well as strong managerial experience. The director will have a solid art history background, be creative in their approach to art museums, and be considered by their peers in the museum world to be a credible, well-regarded colleague. They will be able to shape and articulate a strategic vision for MAG and possess superb skills in fundraising, financial management, audience development, and as a decision-maker. The director must be willing and able to serve as the organization’s spokesperson to all constituencies, both external and internal, increasing awareness of MAG by clearly articulating the museum’s ambitious goals and programs. They will be a bold thinker with a resourceful bent and a sense of humor, willing and able to bring ideas to the MAG while being appreciative of the museum’s history and long-standing role in the community earned over many years.
