HVA runs various events each year. These may be to take visual arts exhibitions to local communities or to offer support and development to HVA artists.
HVA runs several events and exhibitions each year. These are usually planned and organised by teams of local HVA Artists. The Events Coordinator pulls together these teams, offers them guidance and support during the project, and ensures all key activities are undertaken in a timely manner. Each event is treated as a project following a defined plan.
The Events Coordinator is an overarching role for all events and reports to the Chair. The events include Art Fair style exhibitions and an annual conference. Other activities may be introduced as HVA develops.
Although most of this role can be handled online from home, there may be times when onsite visits are needed. Reasonable ut of pocket expenses will be covered.
What will you do?
- Work with Area Coordinators to pull together local teams
- Supervise and liaise with the local teams
- Make sure everything is in place from venue booking (where appropriate)
- Liaise with the Business Relationships Developer to agree on likely candidates to approach for event sponsorship and advertising
- Provide reports to the Chair and Executive Team
- Review, maintain and update relevant project plans including budgets, liaising with the Treasurer and highlighting any issues.
- Offer in person support at events if possible.
- Review and revise project plans after each event.
What are we looking for?
You will be a well-organised projects coordinator who is used to supporting remove teams. It is likely that there will be more than one event team in action at any one time. You will be confident liaising online with these teams, with other volunteers and with the Executive Team.
What's in It for you?
This is a mostly home-based role with lots of interest for anyone who is good at coordinating several projects, project teams and timelines.
It offers a great opportunity to develop your project coordination skills while supporting HVA as we enrich local communities with visual arts.
What next?
