Communications Associate

Fractured Atlas is seeking a full‑time Communications Associate. Fractured Atlas is a national, fully remote nonprofit arts service organization. Our work is guided by the belief that some of the boldest, most urgent creative work happens outside of institutions, led by individual artists, emerging collectives, and grassroots organizations. Our mission is to make the journey from inspiration to living practice more accessible and equitable for artists and creatives.

We run the largest fiscal sponsorship program in the country, supporting thousands of active projects in every creative medium across all 50 states. Through fundraising tools, educational resources, visa letters, community programming, and 1‑on‑1 support, we help artists access the funding, time, and community they need to make the art the world needs.

As our Communications Associate, you’ll shape almost every message our members and public audiences see, from closure notices and event invites to newsletters and Instagram carousels. You’ll take a request from “here’s what’s changing” all the way to “it’s live on every channel.” You’ll also keep the systems behind that work clear and running, so the whole team has room to be creative.

We’re looking for an organized, multi‑faceted, curious communicator who notices things: the audience we haven’t reached yet, the caption that could be more accessible, the small friction a better workflow would remove. You speak up about what you notice. You’ll enjoy this job if you like a day that moves between writing, designing, scheduling, answering member questions, and running event tech.

You’ll report to the Director, Communications, and join a Communications & Community team that’s energetic, inventive, and collaborative. You don’t need an arts or nonprofit background. You just need to care about independent artists and be willing to learn the field.

At Fractured Atlas, we individually and collectively work hard to carry out our organization’s mission. We also understand that work is just one part of life and, through a culture of care, support team members having full and robust lives outside of work. With that foundation, our organizational culture embraces people who are open to:

• Building trust with others and addressing equitable distribution of responsibilities when collaborating.
• Learning new ways of working while welcoming change as a way to reshape processes/policies/programming that no longer serve our values.
• Transparency in communications, decision making, and feedback.
• Centering care and connection in our individual work and in relation to our colleagues.

We recognize that the culture and core values of an organization should continue to evolve to reflect the world we live in. At any given time, we recognize that there might be emerging values other than stated values and we continue to have conversations about stated and emerging values.

Additionally, at Fractured Atlas we work to adhere to anti‑racism and anti‑oppression principles in all areas of our internal and external work. This commitment is grounded in our belief that change is possible, and that our work and that of the artistic community as a whole will grow stronger as oppression is eliminated.

In our current phase of this journey towards being an Anti‑Racist Anti‑Oppressive organization, the whole staff is engaged in all staff ARAO meetings led by rotating teams and undergo training as part of their onboarding process. We recognize that we do not have all of the answers as we pursue this work. This work will continue to shift as the Fractured Atlas team changes.

We ask that new team members join us as we continue to learn, practice, and grow in this work. Learn more about what it’s like to work at Fractured…
