A variety of full-time and part-time positions will be available in several departments and include: general manager, tour operations, archives, merchandise, food & beverage, ecology, security and market, sales and public relations.

So, on Tuesday, officials with Paisley Park say a job fair will be held on September 8 and September 9 at the Chanhassen Dinner Theater.

Applications can be downloaded at officialpaisleypark.com.

Prince’s residence, which covers an area of 5,000 m2 near Minneapolis (Minnesota) will be accessible to the public starting the 6th of October, a week before the tribute concert that will bring together many artists in the home-city of the beloved singer. Job-seekers should take their applications and resumes to the job fair. Anyone unable to attend the job fair, can send the application here. The museum will be open 9:00 a.m. – 9:00 p.m., seven days a week, closing only on Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Tyka Nelson, his sister, said that Prince’s long time intention was to allow the public to visit Paisley Park, where the artist moved in 1987 and died on 21 April.

Tickets, at $38.50 and $100, went on sale late last month for tours through the end of 2016.

Because no will was found, Prince’s estate is in probate court, where a special administrator is attempting to raise cash to pay off a hefty tax bill coming due in January, and to sort out who will inherit his millions.

For years Paisley Park stood as a musical fortress, a playground for Prince that few could accress.
