The Public Relations and Marketing Manager oversees press and media contacts and relations, and develops and directs marketing campaigns that promote the Sheldon

Museum of Art and its dedicated support group, the Sheldon Art Association (SAA), and their activities. The Sheldon has a renowned collection of American art and is located on the University of Nebraska-Lincoln campus in a masterpiece building designed by Philip Johnson.
