Ever wondered what goes on behind the scenes in your local theatre? Now is the chance to find out.
Join us as a new trustee - we will soon celebrate our 50th birthday and you could help drive our vision into the future.
An exciting opportunity exists for new trustees to join our board, known as the Council of Management. We are at a dynamic stage of our history especially as this April we became a National Portfolio Organisation of the Arts Council of England with ambitions to grow and develop our activities.
The Plough Arts Centre is an independent theatre, cinema, gallery and workshop provider located in the heart of the community in the centre of Great Torrington. We are a non-profit UK registered charity overseen by a team of volunteers (called the Trustees).
We are seeking people to join the board with strong marketing skills, especially digital, community fundraising, HR and legal expertise, and experience of chairing a board. We would also value applications from people running businesses within the local or wider community (especially Torrington or Bideford). However, if you have leadership experience in the arts or creative industries or other skills you think would benefit the board, please don’t hesitate to apply as we would love to hear from you.
We particularly welcome applicants who are local residents and young people (18+), as these groups are underrepresented on the board.
