Pocklington Arts Centre has a new Director.
Angela Stone will join the team from October 2022, bringing considerable experience in arts management.
Angela has been selected from a range of strong candidates attracted to the position, both regionally and nationally.
Town Mayor, Steve McCann, said “Angela conveys a clear passion and commitment to the Arts and measurable first-hand experience of managing a thriving Venue as a Hub of the Community.
“We are thrilled to welcome her to the Team at such an exciting time of growth and potential for the Arts Centre and the wider Town and surrounding villages.”
“We can’t wait to have you here, Angela!”
With a new Team in place – Dave Parker as Venue Manager and Isobel Bielby as Marketing and Administration Officer – Angela says, “I feel inspired by the incredible legacy of Janet Farmer and James Duffy for their commitment to creating the Venue we all know and love.
“Creativity, Community and Collaboration are the cornerstones from which we will establish our foundations for continued growth. I believe it is our collective responsibility, working collaboratively with our partners at Pocklington Town Council, Arts Council England and East Riding of Yorkshire Council to create adaptive space for inclusive shared experience.
“We will anticipate and respond to the changing demands of our evolving audience and our environmental impact on the spaces we manage.”
