Han Jiwon Ashley

Having a long-held passion for the arts, Ashley had several opportunities to develop her skills as an arts manager during her time in the BA (Hons) Arts Management programme at LASALLE College of the Arts.

She took on her first programme manager role for the multidisciplinary festival ARTWALK (2023), and worked on several multisensory programmes including the curation of a fashion exhibition Common Thread, and the production management of the dinner theatre experience Rachel and The Rempah Runaways.

Ashley has also worked as a public relations account executive at Mercury Integrated (Gusto Collective), and as a gallery assistant at Gajah Gallery. These opportunities have allowed her to gain critical insights and first-hand knowledge of the Singaporean arts scene. Ashley aspires to further explore opportunities and gaps present in Singapore's arts scene, and hopes to bring impactful changes to the creative and cultural sector.
