The Art House Wakefield has announced DAMON JACKSON-WALDOCK as its new Programme Director.

Deputy Curator at Yorkshire Sculpture Park for 11 years, Jackson-Waldock also worked as Creative Producer on the Oak Project during the last year.

He has previously produced large-scale public realm commissions as Guest Curator for The Piece Hall in Halifax and has been a Career Mentor at Sheffield Hallam University since 2017.

CEO and Artistic Director Sydney Thornbury said she was "thrilled" to have Jackson-Waldock join The Art House.

"His appointment comes on the back of a number of exciting changes to the senior team over the last year and I think we’re in a really strong position to be bold and ambitious with the work we showcase."
