Volunteer

Join our dedicated Board of Directors

The Visual Arts Centre of Clarington (VAC), is seeking applications for volunteers to join our Board of Directors. Dedicated and enthusiastic individuals are encouraged to apply for a position with us. Being a member of the board is challenging; it requires
commitment, leadership, decision-making, and integrity. Board meetings are held on a monthly basis (typically on a Wednesday in the evening), and members are expected to volunteer additional time sitting on committees, attending VAC events, and support fundraising activities.

The VAC of Clarington is a not-for-profit organization. We are recognized as a professional gallery of contemporary art by the Ontario Arts Council, the Ontario Association of Art Galleries, artists and arts organizations in Ontario and beyond. The VAC utilizes art to create an inclusive space where ideas are exchanged, questions are asked, and connections are made.

Ideal candidates will be trained professionals with fundraising and/or previous board experience, who possess a strong interest in the VAC. Professional training in the arts is not required. Candidates must also be community-minded and possess good communication and interpersonal skills. Previous experience in the not-for-profit sector
is an asset.

Interested individuals are asked to email board@vac.ca outlining the skills and expertise they possess that would make them a valuable addition to our board. Successful candidates will be contacted. Please apply by Friday, May 31, 2019.

Candidates will be contacted for interviews the first two weeks of June in anticipation of joining our board meeting on June 19, 2019.
