Summary

We are seek­ing to appoint new mem­bers to our Board of Trustees, including a new Chair. We are seek­ing peo­ple with expe­ri­ence, knowl­edge and com­mit­ment.

Detailed description

New Brewery Arts connects people with the hand-made, promotes the joy and fulfilment of making and celebrates the role of craft and creativity in all our lives.


New Brewery Arts is run by a small team, governed by a Board of Trustees, providing strategic direction and support. The Board of Trustees meet on a quarterly basis, on-site. Trustees are also involved in a number of sub-committees (which often meet virtually). In order to ensure effective governance and support for the team, we seek to balance the range of skills and experience amongst the Trustees to match the needs of the organisation.


Trustees

Our Trustees play a crucial role in setting the strategic direction of the charity and ensuring good governance. Trustees contribute to ensuring that the charity fulfils its mission and operates effectively.

Chair of Board of Trustees

The Chair leads the board, ensuring that it governs the charity effectively, in service of the charity’s values, vision and mission. The Chair leads in an inclusive way, supporting the board to work together well, and providing support and challenge to the Chief Executive Officer.

Whilst we don’t expect all Trustees to be expert in all areas of governance, or to have even been a trustee before, we want to ensure that collectively the Board is able to provide the organisation with access to a range of knowledge, skills, and experience to operate effectively.

About New Brewery Arts

New Brewery Arts connects people with the hand-made, promotes the joy and fulfilment of making and celebrates the role of craft and creativity in all our lives.

New Brewery Arts is a charity focused on craft and visual arts and comprises galleries, artists’ studios, café and shop, and guest accommodation, in addition to an extensive programme of courses and workshops (over 200 each year). As a day visitor destination, we welcome over 250,000 visitors every year.

We support our local community by working with groups who find arts and creativity either difficult to access. Recently this has seen us work with care-home residents, military families, those with experience of domestic abuse and dementia sufferers and their carers.
