Posted Job Title Director of Development for Development and Alumni Relations Job Profile Title Director, School/Center Development Job Description Summary MUSEUM OVERVIEW: The Penn Museum conducts research, shares stories, and uses the collection of more than one million objects it stewards

to provide in-person and virtual experiences that transform the understanding of what it means to be human.

Through this mission, its work centers on creating dynamic engagement with the Museum's world-class collection for our campus, local, national, and global audiences. Research has been a defining pillar of its mission and a hallmark of the Museum, beginning with Penn's 1887 excavation at the ancient Mesopotamian city of Nippur-the first American excavation in the Middle East, and a groundbreaking undertaking in the history of archaeological research-and through over 300 field excavations or anthropological research projects around the world.

This work is continued today by 20 curators, 9 teaching specialists and research fellows, and over 150 affiliated consulting scholars. Most of the objects in the collection were excavated by the Museum's archaeologists over the course of a century of fieldwork. They tell a much richer narrative than purchased collections do because they have archaeological contexts and are the end results of carefully constructed research programs. The Museum welcomes over 180,000 visitors onsite each year, drawn to its permanent galleries, special exhibitions, and an extensive range of onsite public programs which draw audiences across the Greater Philadelphia region and Northeast Corridor, as well as national and international visitors.

Many more explore through the Digital Penn Museum, where they can join live events, watch films and lectures, and delve into more than 400,000 objects with online records. Our You Tube views have surpassed three million in recent years. The Museum is engaged in an extensive renovation and reimagination process, which when completed, will include transformation of more than 44,000 square feet-75 percent-of its signature galleries and public spaces. In November 2019, the Museum celebrated the completion of the inaugural phase of this physical transformation, which made the building fully accessible to everyone for the very first time and opened more than 10,000 square feet of reimagined galleries across the Museum's Main level: a new Sphinx Gallery, Mexico and Central America Gallery, and Africa Galleries.

Along with the Middle East Galleries, which opened in April 2018, and its long-term exhibition Native American Voices: The People - Here and Now, which opened in 2014, all Main Level galleries are bright, accessible, and inviting. These recently renovated spaces follow leading practices in exhibition design and interpretive standards and include cases with localized climate control and screened light levels for rotating displays of textiles.

It also unveiled a fully renovated and air-conditioned 615-seat Harrison Auditorium, new restrooms, elevators, and visitor lounges. The gallery transformation expanded to the Upper Level in November 2022 with the opening of a new Eastern Mediterranean Gallery, using Penn-excavated collections from the Southern Levant, from the monumental to the everyday-the largest collection in the Americas-to tell the story of one of the great crossroads in history, which connected the Mediterranean, Egypt, Anatolia, Syria, and Mesopotamia through trade, migration, religion, and empire.

The next phase, the largest capital and gallery reinstallation project in the Museum's history with a total budget of $54 million, is the renovation of the Egyptian Wing and an opportunity to showcase a world-class Egypt and Nubia collection across two floors of gallery spaces totaling 15,000 square feet. Excavated mostly by Penn, and second in size in the U. S. only to the Boston Museum of Fine Arts, the collections span the entire 5,000 years of ancient Egyptian history, including architectural elements of a Middle Kingdom pharaonic ceremonial palace (the only palace so significantly represented in any museum in the world) and an intact Old Kingdom tomb chapel.

Finally, working with brightspot strategy of New York City, the Museum has developed a new strategic vision to address the essential question: how does it retain and increase its relevance amid rapidly changing societal and cultural expectations? This strategic visioning process, completed in May, 2023, engaged stakeholders from the University, the community, and the Museum to identify opportunities for its five core mission areas: research, education, collections stewardship and ethics, visitor experience, and interpretation.
