Imagine! – one of Belfast’s most engaging and eclectic annual festivals – is seeking passionate individuals to join its Board of Trustees. With the festival now in its 11th year, we’re eager to refresh our Board and bring in fresh perspectives to support our new Festival Director in delivering ambitious plans for growth and innovation.
Roles like this are often seen as dull-but-worthy CV stuffers, but we believe this a genuinely exciting opportunity to help shape the future of a unique arts festival that showcases thought-provoking discussions on contemporary political and societal issues. Trustees are expected to commit to around 6-8 meetings annually and, while the role is unpaid, it offers huge potential returns on the investment of your time. We’re particularly keen to hear from individuals with experience in culture, activism, diversity and inclusion. We also encourage applications from young people, disabled people, women and individuals from minority ethnic backgrounds to help ensure the Board reflects the diversity of the community it serves.
While desirable, no prior board experience is required – just a passion for Belfast and its people. If you’re ready to help shape the future of our festival, Imagine! wants to hear from you. You can download full information and application details here.
