Georgie Meagher, based in Melbourne Australia, has a background in contemporary performance, visual arts and creative learning. She was Director of interdisciplinary arts organisation and biennial festival Next Wave in Melbourne from 2014-2018, and previously led public engagement at the Museum of Contemporary Art Sydney.

She was the recipient of a Cultural Leadership grant from Australia Council for the Arts in 2012, received a Dunlop Fellowship for the Asialink Leaders Program in 2017. Georgie speaks regularly about access and inclusion, creative risk-taking, and emerging artists practice, and sits on a number of advisory boards and committees including Blocumenta, a blockchain arts funding research project. Independently, she has curated exhibitions about economics, resilience and socially engaged practice, organised screenings about strange obsessions, given lectures about James Franco and published critical texts about the future of artist self-organisation in association with organisations including Gertrude Contemporary, Kaldor Public Art Projects, Artist Network UK and Asialink Arts.
