Help Wanted: Arts & Culture Writers
A/C is looking for new contributors who are passionate about the arts and about Chicago. We'd like to have some new writers who are interested in covering all forms of the arts--theater, dance, comedy, fashion, circuses and other forms of performance plus visual arts, photography, architecture and design. We like to highlight the quirky nature of the arts in Chicago too, so feel free to suggest something new. If you're interested, we would love to hear from you.
As a contributor to Gapers Block, you would be expected to write at least one post a week for the A/C page, plus items for the Slowdown event calendar. We are looking for writers who can cover the arts in general or who are especially interested in one of the forms above. (If you'd like to write about music, that comes under the Transmission or Music page.)
NOTE: Gapers Block is a volunteer entity; while the position is unpaid, writers benefit from building clips; receiving free admission to plays, performances and other cultural events; media access to press conferences and other events; and occasionally other perks.
If you are interested in writing about arts and culture for Gapers Block, please send two to three writing samples, a little note about yourself and why you would like to write for GB to nancy@gapersblock.com with the subject line, "Contributing to the A/C page."
