Arts Aid has announced the appointment of Emma Callin to its Board of Directors.
The charity, which is now in it’s eighth year, supports exceptionally talented artists and performers to develop their careers in the arts.
Emma brings a wealth of experience from across the arts sector.
Emma to The Board
Most recently, she served as Head of Arts and Culture with the Government, a role that included the management of the Villa Gaiety complex.
Prior to this, she spent eleven years as Arts Development Manager working closely with the Isle of Man Arts Council.
She will next appear as Marie, Chair of the Women’s Institute, in the much-anticipated Calendar Girls, opening this May.
Asset to Arts Aid
Speaking on her appointment, Emma said: “It is an honour to join the Arts Aid Board and give something back to our island community.
“I’m deeply attuned to the life-changing impact of the arts, and I’m passionate about helping to create opportunities for our young people to further develop their arts education.
“The island has an impressive history of developing performers in a range of arts genres and Arts Aid has been key in providing financial aid to support them. I’m delighted to now be part of that.”

As a Board Member, Emma will help shape Arts Aid’s strategic direction, advise on funding decisions and advocate for the charity’s mission within the island’s arts community.
Arts Aid remains committed to championing the arts in all forms and looks forward to the contribution Emma will make in her new voluntary role.
