Spectra seeks Board members to ensure we stay true to our mission and values. From garden installations to interactive performances, our work seeks to create new spaces with people rather than finding ways to include them in exclusive systems.

Founded in 2013, Spectra has performed to over 12,000 people and run 525 co-creation sessions. Our work is supported and enhanced by long-term partnerships with creative and community organisations. You might be completely new to governance or have years of experience and want a new challenge. Either way we would like to hear from you. At Spectra we like to lead with care and meeting people where they are at. If you are interested in joining our board please could you provide an Expression of interest that answers the following questions: ● Question 1: What experience do you have in relation to this organisation and role? ● Question 2: What has interested you in the role? You are welcome to write your answers, record a voice note or video, or send your thoughts to us in whatever way is most accessible to you.
