Role Overview:

Join the team that is leading the Martha’s Vineyard Museum (MVM) into its second century. We know that a museum is much more than a collection of buildings, art and historic artifacts, and we have made great strides towards becoming an organization that fully represents the entire Island population. The Education Department plays an active role in helping the Museum achieve this core mission.

In this part-time, year-round position, the Education Associate will assist the Education Manager in engaging the Island community through the Museum’s diverse range of Educational programming. Our lessons are aligned with the Massachusetts State Teaching Standards and focus on core Island themes, complementing and enhancing the learning that happens in classrooms. Over the 2023-2024 school year, the Education team engaged with students from all Island schools, hosting 122 field trips and classroom visits. We also hosted or took part in 44 public educational programs. In the 2024/2025 academic year, we hope to maintain and grow our engagement with Island students and families and the Education Associate will be integral to helping us do so.
