Paul believes in the arts on Bowen as a positive expression for the community to forge our identity.  Now in his fourth year on the board, he feels fortunate to be in a position to help nurture and promote the arts on the island.  

Paul’s professional experience has primarily been in the non-profit sector, assisting tourism associations to work for the betterment of their stakeholders.  In particular, his background in organization development and governance practices within the tourism industry are areas he hopes can be helpful to the Bowen Island Arts Council as it evolves and develops. 

Growing up in a family where all forms of arts were appreciated, and practiced, Paul has always been fascinated by the creative process. His aspiration for BIAC is to be a beacon of a thriving and creative arts ecosystem on Bowen that benefits both artists and the wider community.
