Job Responsibilities

We are looking for a student assistant to investigate and compile the history of Malmö Art Hall's educational activities. In connection with Malmö Art Hall's 50th anniversary in 2025, we want to conduct a study of how the educational work, primarily aimed at children and young people, has evolved throughout the art hall's history.

The investigation will form the basis for some form of publication to be released in 2026. The assignment includes archival studies at the art hall and the city archive, examining documents such as meeting reports, assignment descriptions, printed materials, and exhibition archives. You will also conduct interviews with individuals who have previously worked at the art hall in educational roles and management positions. The work involves collecting, compiling, and analyzing material. The work will be carried out in close collaboration with the art hall's project manager for education.

Qualifications

The student assistant program is aimed at those who have completed at least 60 higher education credits and are still studying throughout the assignment period.

You are studying art history, journalism, archival science, or a program that the employer deems equivalent. A requirement is that you have documented knowledge in art history or art science.

It is advantageous if you have an interest in children's culture and experience in archival research and interview studies.

As a person, you are curious, self-driven, analytical, and comfortable speaking with people of different ages.
