CPA GOVERNING COUNCIL & MANAGEMENT TEAM
The CPA’s governing body has up to nine Selected and Fellow member councillors, who are proposed and voted for by the membership to serve for a term of three years. The honorary officers of Chair, Vice chair, Treasurer and Secretary are appointed by Council to serve for one year at the first meeting after the AGM. Occasionally Council may co-opt members from outside the membership, who might bring in specific expertise.
The Associate membership is represented on Council by a non-voting councillor. Council is responsible for the selection of new members, and for all the activities of the association and it’s companies through their respective sub committees and boards. Council is also supported by the Members and Associates Advisory Committee (MAAC), which organises lectures, studio visits, workshops and other activities. MAAC is mainly composed of volunteer Associate members.
CLEMENTINE PERRINS
Chair of the CPA Council
After a short selection procedure of candidates who applied for the role, Council co-opted Clementine Perrins as our next Chair. Clementine has long experience in the arts, especially working in visual art and marketing. In her own words:
“I am excited about the opportunity to contribute to the Association’s mission and its vibrant community of artists.
My background encompasses both a profound love for the arts and extensive experience in leadership roles within creative organizations. I have actively participated in exhibitions, and have established connections with both collectors and gallerists. Moreover, my experience as Head of Marketing has provided me with a solid foundation in strategic planning, team management, and fostering collaboration among diverse stakeholders.
I deeply resonate with the Craft Potters Association’s commitment to preserving traditional techniques while promoting innovation and contemporary aesthetics. I look forward to the possibility of contributing to the growth and success of the Craft Potters Association”
We look forward to working with you, Clementine.
