COMMITTEES

Providing leadership, making connections and helping us build for the future.

Service on one of our committees is a great way to put your skills and interests to work while supporting the arts at the same time! Our reputation as an arts council and advocate for the arts is due in large part to the enthusiastic and thoughtful efforts of the community members who have served in this capacity, but there is still so much to do! Check out committee opportunities below and help us to build a strong future for the arts in our community.
