Our Team
Chris and Lucy – Owners / Managers
Cornish born Lucy and her Aussie husband Chris took over Truro Arts Company in 2011 and moved the shop to its current premises in River Street shortly afterwards. Their vision is for the business to be the creative hub of Cornwall – offering everything from art products to workshops and exhibitions for both the amateur and professional artist. Plus a fab Arts Café of course!
The Art Shop
Leo – Manager / Exhibition and Workshop Coordinator
When Leo isn’t busy using his extensive knowledge about art materials to help our customers, or constantly improving the fengshui of the shop, you’ll find him creating his own great works of art from The Old Bakery Studios.
Morgan – Graphic Designer and Sales Assistant
Morgan has a degree in press and editorial photography and has a wonderful way with all things design. She really brightens up the shop and website with her creative flare. She uses this in her own work by stitching together her unique embroidery’s. Find her on the shop floor for her helpful insights and advice.
Fred – Sales Assistant
Fred has worked in the shop since he completed his work experience with us and has now built up an amazing range of knowledge. He is a Lego fanatic and natural engineer so if you have fixing queries… Fred’s your man!
Flavia – Children’s Workshop and Party Co-Ordinator
Flavia has recently graduated from BA drawing at Falmouth University and has already sneaked in an art residency in the arctic before joining us to run the kids workshops and parties. Her natural enthusiasm is contagious which may be why the children have given her such a warm welcome!
