2024 Artist Trust Board of Trustees Application

Welcome! Thank you for your interest in serving on the Artist Trust Board of Trustees! Our goal is a board that is geographically, racially, and economically diverse. This open application is to identify community members who want to have a closer relationship with us. Please share this with people in your network who might also be interested.
Role: Board members are volunteers who are responsible for governing Artist Trust, establishing and upholding our mission and vision, and preparing for a successful future. Board members bring vital expertise and thought partnership. They also work to broaden our network, introducing community members, artists, and potential supporters to Artist Trust.
Time commitment: 3-6 hours/month. This includes board meetings (quarterly, Saturday) and committees (every other month). Most meetings are virtual – in person meetings are in conjunction with social events.
Financial commitment: We ask board members to make an annual donation that feels personally significant, whether that is $25 or $2,500. There are opportunities throughout the year to participate in fundraising outside of this annual commitment, including campaigns, events, and special initiatives.

We fuel our funding and other programs for artists through fundraising, partnership, and community engagement. Recognized as a national model for direct funding and professional development for working artists, we have invested over $15 million in individual artists since our founding in 1986. We view our mission through a lens of racial and geographic equity and are actively working to become an anti-racist organization and build a leaderful workplace. Learn more at artisttrust.org.
