CARFAC SASK is now welcoming Applications/Nominations/Candidates for our 2022-2024 Board of Directors
CARFAC SASK is led by an elected Board of Directors, comprised of volunteers who are practicing artists and/or arts workers from across the province. In close consultation with staff, they develop policies and priorities to guide the operations of the organization. The Board plays a critical role in governance and strategic planning, using CARFAC’s mandate and accumulated research and community input to direct our vision for the future. Board meetings occur 4 to 6 times per year with occasional committee participation as needed.
The election of the Board of Directors will take place at the Annual General Meeting (AGM) on November 22nd at 6 pm via Zoom. Members, staff, and the current board can nominate Board Members. Nominations are requested in advance, no later than Nov 15th 2022. In order to stand for election at the AGM you must be a current member of CARFAC SASK at the time of the AGM.
