[spectre] AV Festival is seeking a new director

[Honor Harger]

Dear all,

You may have heard that after three and a half 
amazing years, I have decided to move on from my 
position as Director of the AV Festival in the 
North East of England.

As such, we are beginning our search for a new director.

Please pass this on to anyone you think might be interested.

All the very best,

Honor Harger



AV FESTIVAL & AUDIO VISUAL ARTS NORTH EAST SEEK A NEW DIRECTOR

The AV Festival, one of Europe's leading 
festivals of electronic art, is seeking a new 
director.

Salary: 				£30,000 - £35,000 p/a

Deadline for applications: 		27 June 2008

http://www.avfestival.co.uk/news/new-director

We are looking for an outstanding individual who 
can act as the executive lead of Audio Visual 
Arts North East and be responsible for the 
creative programmes it runs, especially the AV 
Festival.

The successful candidate will build on the 
successes of the first three AV Festivals, and 
map out the future of the festival.  They will be 
an inspirational leader who will help chart new 
territories for the festival and conceive of new 
programmes for Audio Visual Arts North East.

The AV Festival is in a uniquely strong position 
to continue to grow and prosper.  It has 
developed from a pilot project to a regular 
biennial event of international standing, within 
three great festivals.  The festival has a 
fantastic network of collaborators across the 
North East of England region, and around the 
world. The Arts Council England's recent decision 
to make Audio Visual Arts North East  - the 
organisation which runs the festival - a 
regularly funded organisation (RFO), provides 
much needed financial stability going forward

This is the ideal moment for a creative and 
dynamic individual to take a leading role in 
defining the festival's future.
