Are you passionate about the Arts and want to promote them in the Dorchester area?

Dorchester ARTS is seeking two new members for our Board of Management/Trustees.

Dorchester ARTS is funded by Arts Council England South West, West Dorset District Council and Dorchester Town Council to provide both performing and visual arts for the people of Dorchester and the surrounding area, via venue based performances and community projects.

Dorchester ARTS’ Board of Management/Trustees is responsible for guiding the organisation, supporting its creative vision, overseeing operational activity and ensuring Dorchester ARTS continues to fulfil its statutory obligations with regard to its position as a Company Limited by Guarantee, a Registered Charity and a publicly funded organisation.

The Board is particularly interested in attracting potential Members who apart from a keen interest in the arts also have expertise in the fields of business, financial matters, and fundraising.

Experience of previous Board membership is not essential, as a full induction process will be offered to new members. The Board meets every two months with occasional special meetings or sub-group meetings. Dorchester ARTS aims to “inspire, involve and entertain” and is committed to Access, Equal Opportunities and Diversity.
