Positively Philadelphia: A Job Bank For Arts Professionals
By Lauren Lipton
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- If you're looking for a job, here's a reminder about an online site you might not know about.
"It's an online job bank, and it's the largest job bank in the region for arts jobs in the community," says John McInerney, vice-president of marketing for the Greater Philadelphia Cultural Alliance (top photo). "Fifteen thousand people check the site up to ten times every month."

McInerney says their web site can be a godsend for those who want to make a career in the arts.
"It's really great," he tells Positively Philadelphia. "I've known so many people who work in the arts community who got their job or heard about their job first from the job bank."
And what kind of jobs are there?
"Anything from historians, curators, administrative positions, executive directors at the various museums and theaters -- really anything that falls under arts and culture."
The site includes fulltime, part-time, and volunteer positions. Here's where you go: Philaculture.org.
"It's a really great resource," says McInerney.
And, for this week, that's "Positively Philadelphia!"
