Our audiences are growing year on year, with diverse representation and positive visitor feedback. We are focused on responding to real need in the local community and expanding our reach and influence in the cultural sector.

* Strategic vision, creative thinking, independent judgement and the ability to focus on practical issues.
* Passion for the visual arts and the power of art and creativity to transform lives.
* A willingness to play an active role in fundraising and capital project planning.
* A connection to Eastbourne or the wider Southeast region.
* Diverse professional networks to support organisational objectives.
* Knowledge of and interest in environmental responsibility.
* Objectivity, fairness, integrity, wisdom, discretion and good judgment.


What will you be doing?

RESPONSIBILITIES: The Board provides entrepreneurial leadership within a framework of prudent and effective controls to enable risk to be assessed and managed.
