Louise Govier (She/Her)
Chief Executive
Louise is Artswork’s Chief Executive, leading the organisation overall and planning how we achieve our long term vision.
She taught in universities while gaining a PhD in Art History, then worked in learning and participation in museums, particularly at the National Gallery. A Clore Leadership Fellowship developed new skills, enabling her to research ‘leaders in co-creation’. She then led several properties for the National Trust, finding ways to grow engagement and income through creativity while also helping nature conservation.
Louise loves enabling young people to find solutions for themselves and the world. She sings, and is a Trustee of creative youth charities In Focus and La Folia.
