Tudor Place Historic House and Garden, the extraordinary single remaining early 19th century pastoral estate in Washington, DC, seeks a dynamic leader to take this thriving museum to new growth. Tudor Place’s collections represent two centuries of fine and decorative arts, including a large collection of items owned by Martha and George Washington; the idyllic gardens contain many original plantings and historic old-growth trees. A new Master Preservation Plan aims to secure the site’s future, with a $20 million-plus Capital Campaign beginning in 2015. Tudor Place operates with a 19-person staff, a $1.3 million budget and a 19-person Board of Trustees. The Executive Director’s primary responsibilities are to provide Tudor Place with strategic leadership and management of staff, operations, collections, structures and gardens; work closely with the Board on the Capital Campaign, fundraising and outreach activities; and build productive relationships with staff, volunteers, community stakeholders and cultural and historical institutions locally and nationally. Requirements include a Master’s degree, seven years senior experience leading an historic house, American history or art museum, fundraising and strategic planning skills and a collaborative working style.
