Carla McGrath and Professor Scott Harrison have joined the Board of Screen Queensland, starting their three-year tenures this month.
Screen Queensland Chair Roslyn Atkinson said Ms McGrath was a proud Torres Strait Islander woman with extensive board and advisory experience.
Ms Atkinson said, as an independent consultant, Ms McGrath specialised in community engagement and consultation, transformational organisational cultural change, for-purpose organisational strategy and sustainability, program design and development, and facilitation.
She said Professor Harrison, the Pro Vice Chancellor (Arts, Education and Laws) and Assistant Vice Chancellor (Cultural Curation and Community Partnerships) at Griffith University, was also Chair of the Australian Youth Orchestra.
“The board looks forward to working with Ms McGrath and Professor Harrison to support the agency’s strategic direction, policies and funding decisions, and to continue to build a successful and inclusive screen sector across the state.”
Ms Atkinson also thanked outgoing board member Dean Gibson, who was recently appointed Chair of the Queensland Theatre board.
