Digital Counsel is looking for a Freelance Copywriter with strong roots in the art and culture world to support content production across our client accounts. This is a project-based role for a writer who thrives on translating complex ideas into clear, compelling digital copy across registers—from social captions and email subject lines to voice-y newsletters and editorial features.
You're fluent in the language of contemporary art without being precious about it. You write quickly, edit rigorously, and understand that the best copy disappears into the work it describes.
This is a freelance engagement with the potential to grow into a full-time Social Media Manager role for the right candidate. We're looking for someone who wants to build something with us—not just fill a gap.
Digital Counsel is a full stack creative agency led by strategists and artists to service museums, foundations, and nonprofits alongside mission-driven global brands. Our New York-based team builds brands, digital ecosystems, and social media campaigns for art organizations ready to expand their reach.
We started our company to meet the art world's urgent need for efficient and impactful digital communications strategy— with measurable ROI. Our expertise spans digital strategy, communications, content creation, advertising, and audience development, supported by hands-on capabilities in brand identity, websites, social media, content production, artist collaborations, platform management, and paid media planning. We make videos, too. Together, these disciplines allow us to build cohesive, culture-driven campaigns that connect art, technology, and audience in meaningful ways.
Past and present clients include Artists Rights' Society, Amant Foundation, Aspen Ideas, Harmony Korine's EDGLRD, Flux, Hauser & Wirth Institute, Metrograph, Rhizome, United States Artists, and Venus Over Manhattan.
Digital Counsel is a New York–based creative agency operating at the intersection of culture and digital marketing.

Our culture is grounded in collaboration and respect for diverse perspectives. We value open communication, ambition, and the unique insights that come from a team spanning artists, writers, engineers, and cultural practitioners.
We support professional growth and well-being through flexible schedules, a hybrid work model, and cultural benefits that encourage ongoing engagement with the arts. Located in Lower Manhattan, our studio shares a building with the New Art Dealers Alliance (NADA), offering direct access to exhibitions, openings, and the wider creative community that fuels our work.
