The Isle of Man Arts Council
The Isle of Man Arts Council was set up over 50 years ago to support the work of local amateurs and professionals as well as visiting artists. It funds many organisations and offers advice and information to hundreds of people every year, encouraging and enabling participation and development in all aspects of the arts.
Membership of the Arts Council is voluntary. Members give their time freely to serve the people of the Isle of Man by developing and improving the knowledge, understanding, practice and access to the arts in all its forms. The Arts Council is a sponsored body of the Department of the Education, Sport and Culture.
Current members
The current chair of the IOM Arts Council is Mrs. Marlene Maska MLC.
Current Council members are: Laura Rowles, Jo Callister, Chris Williamson, Sharon Walker, Ben Heath, Steven Daykin, David Kilgallon and Jeremy Theobald.
