Who should apply?
All backgrounds and career stages are welcome. All you need is a desire to make an impact on the arts!
Participants may have limited board experience but seek professional development in governance and best practices. Some participants have served on boards in other fields and desire more in-depth knowledge of the issues unique to nonprofit arts. Others are new to the region and are looking to make lasting connections.
ArtsWave encourages candidates from diverse backgrounds to apply. Together, we can ensure that the programs and practices of the region’s arts and cultural organizations are reflective of our entire community.
