CUBITT ARTISTS
Seeking to appoint new trustees
Cubitt is an artist-led co-operative built on a belief in the value of art and artists in society. Cubitt enables contemporary visual arts practice to thrive as a critical, peer-led activity. This is achieved through the provision of co-operatively run studios in central London and unique development opportunities for curators interwoven with curatorial and artistic programmes, driven by an engagement with learning, participation and the social possibilities for art.
Our public programmes include an internationally recognised gallery and curatorial fellowship programme as well as a community and education programme that further encourages art appreciation and artistic practice with a wider audience and context. Cubitt is one of Arts Council England’s national portfolio organisations and is further supported through funding from foundations, grants, private donations and earned income from programme activities.
The artists’ cooperative began Cubitt’s history in 1991 and it remains at the core of our structure and ethos today. Cooperative members inhabit the self-funded studios of Cubitt and continue to take active roles in the organisation’s governance and operations.
We are seeking to appoint new trustees to guide Cubitt’s operations and lead initiatives to strengthen Cubitt’s long-term sustainability. Trustees work together with cooperative members on the governing committees, offering a rewarding dynamic of collaboration where trustees’ contributions are greatly valued. Experience in arts and arts education, community engagement, audience development, diversity and fundraising would be particularly relevant.
To apply, kindly send a brief statement of your interest, experience and qualifications to us by email at trusteesearch@cubittartists.org.uk. Further information about Cubitt is available at www.cubittartists.org.uk.
Closing date: 7th March 2019
