Claire Longrigg B.A., M.A.
Claire has come to Scarborough Art Gallery from Tate Liverpool to work with Lara Goodband, Curator of Art. At Tate Liverpool Claire was responsible for interpreting the collections and engaging with the visitors, an experience which will be invaluable as she initiates events and displays in Scarborough. As Assistant Curator of Art, Claire will be assisting in the organisation of the Gallery's exciting exhibition programme, the interpretation of its collection of fine art and the day to day running of the Gallery.
Claire has also worked for the Walker Art gallery in Liverpool where she developed a series of web pages, which interpreted the Master of the Aachen Alterpiece; and at the Open Eye Gallery in Liverpool, a photographic and media gallery, where she developed her organisational skills.
Claire has a BA in Fine Art from the University of Reading, and an MA in Art Gallery and Museums Studies from the University of Manchester. Email Claire or telephone 01723 374753 .
Museums & Gallery Officer, Jane Mee said: 'It is really great to welcome Claire to the team. She will be bringing new skills and experience to Scarborough Museums & Gallery and a fresh and youthful eye - all invaluable as the service moves forward through this period of major change and development.'
