Steinmetz Family Foundation Museum Fellow, Agora Excavations and Makriyannis Exhibition
Wing
Thanks to a grant from the Steinmetz Family Foundation, the American School of Classical
Studies at Athens (ASCSA) is fortunate to invite applications for a one-year fellowship in
museum education and collections management starting September 1, 2023, with the
possibility of a one-year extension at the School’s discretion. The Steinmetz Family
Foundation Museum Fellow in Athens will, in collaboration with the Director and staff of
the Athenian Agora, design and implement educational resources for use online and on-site
at the Agora Excavations. The Fellow will also assist with exhibitions for the Makriyannis
Wing at the American School of Classical Studies at Athens.
The educational resources from the Agora Excavations delivered through this grant advance
knowledge of Greece in all periods by bridging the gap between the research conducted by
archaeologists and the teaching of the past in the classroom both locally and globally.
Lesson plans, online programs, and on-site programs, give students worldwide access to the
stories and artifacts of generations of people who lived in Athens, one of the longest
continuously settled communities in human history and the home of the world’s first
democracy.
Term:
September 1, 2023-August 31, 2024 (with possibility of renewal until August 31, 2025)
Stipend:
$35,000 USD annual stipend (paid quarterly), plus waived membership fees. The fellow will
also have $2,000 available to fund travel required for carrying out duties of the position
(not for moving expenses); costs will be reimbursed against receipts. Room and board costs
are to be covered from the stipend.

Excavations. The Fellow will also assist in collections management work in the excavation
storerooms to record and catalog artifacts.
