Meghan Goodeve is a curator, educator, and writer. She has established programming across a range of spaces, specialising in artist development, education, and artistic projects which affect social change. Most recently she was Head of Artist Development at Freelands Foundation, leading on the strategic development and delivery of UK-wide programming and partnerships with a focus on artist development from 2021-26. This included the Freelands Artist Programme, Studio Fellowships, and Porthmeor Residency Programme. Within these she programmed and oversaw a number of exhibitions, publishing, residencies, public programming, symposia, digital resources, events and workshops.
Prior to this she was Engagement Curator at Yorkshire Sculpture International (a partnership of Henry Moore Institute, Leeds Art Gallery, The Hepworth Wakefield, Yorkshire Sculpture Park), managing a varied programme, such as commissioning a series of offsite performances with Tarek Atoui, curating the festival’s Associate Artist Programme supporting emerging artists, creating the Sculpture Network, and programming talks, workshops and socially engaged projects bringing together artists with universities, schools, and communities across West Yorkshire.
She has advised a number of artist-led projects such as Decoda (a collaborative CIC directed by Ro Robertson and SHARP) in Cornwall, Threshold, Leeds, and a board member for Yorkshire Artspace, a studio and residency provider in Sheffield.
