interest, SAM application and two references to Volunteer Manager, 
Kathleen Maki, Seattle Art Museum, 100 University Street, Seattle, WA 
98101-2902.   APPLICATIONS DUE BY May 1, 2007.

Overview: Betty Bowen (1918–1977) was a Washington native and 
enthusiastic supporter of Northwest artists. Bowen’s friends established 
the annual Betty Bowen Memorial Award as a celebration of her life and 
to honor and continue her efforts to provide financial support to the 
artists of the Pacific Northwest. Every year since 1977, one artist has 
been selected by the committee to receive an unrestricted cash award.

The Betty Bowen Committee has 15 current members, several of whom have 
participated since its inception in 1977. Former award winners rotate as 
artist members of the Committee and all other committee positions are 
permanent. SAM’s Jon and Mary Shirley Curator of Modern and Contemporary 
Art is also a member of the committee.

Project Description: Under the direction of the Assistant Curator of 
Modern and Contemporary art, the Betty Bowen Intern will be responsible 
for the administration of the Betty Bowen Memorial Award, communication 
with the Betty Bowen committee and local artists, coordinating and 
attending committee meetings, coordinating and accompanying the 
committee on artist and studio visits, writing press releases, and 
organizing artist’s slides and resumes using CaFE (Call for Entry), an 
online tool to facilitate digital applications to the award.  This 
position will work with many departments within the museum, including 
Curatorial, Development, Marketing and Education, to increase 
cross-promotional activities for the Seattle arts community and SAM 
members, and will participate in organizing, researching and archiving 
information on Betty Bowen from committee members, SAM’s files, and the 
UW library Special Collections/Manuscript archive.
