Denise Courcoux, Nantwich Museum manager

Denise Courcoux is the new manager of Nantwich Museum, providing temporary cover for Kate Dobson during maternity leave.

Denise recently graduated with merit in a Master of Arts in Art Gallery & Museum Studies from the University of Manchester.

Nantwich Museum trustees chairman Nick Dyer welcomed her wide experience of administration in the industry and extensive work with volunteers.

Denise was a winner of the 2015 #BeACritic competition for aspiring arts writers in the North West.

This year’s prize included a master class with the Royal Academy’s Tim Marlow.

The competition was originally launched in April 2014 by Liverpool John Moores University’s School of Art and Design, Arts Council England and The Double Negative, in a move to encourage more critical discussion of the arts and to develop vital writing skills.

In 2014, she was one of the winners of the nationwide Axisweb Curated Selection Prize.

Entry involved curating an online exhibition from the Axisweb directory.

Denise’s winning Curated Selection was entitled Possessed, and presented work which investigated fandom and personal obsessions.

Denise, who most recently worked as exhibitions Officer at Bluecoat in Liverpool, said:
“I relish the opportunity to make a positive contribution to a respected accredited museum, and to work with the volunteers who are so vital to the work of galleries and museums.”

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
