We are seeking people to serve on the LOWAC board as directors and have openings for the Secretary and Membership Chair roles. Duties for these positions can be provided upon request.
The Board of Directors has also identified the need to strike the following committees and is looking for a Chair and volunteers for the following:
ArtsFest
Community Arts Project
Fundraising
While not mandatory, those interested may also put their names forward for Visual Arts Chair, Music and Performing Arts Chair and Literary Arts Chair.
We need member and community input about LOWAC’s future!
A number of board members and volunteers have retired from being actively involved with LOWAC in the past few years, which has brought us to a place where we must consider how we can reasonably continue to fulfill our mandate with fewer board members and volunteers. We need new people to bring energy and ideas to help make things happen related to events like Arts@Home, ArtsFest, community arts projects and events. In particular, we are looking for input on events for 2021 that may have to be staged within COVID-19 restrictions, and a larger community arts project in 2022.
We also need members!
LOWAC’s activities are funded almost entirely by membership fees and successful grant applications. Please renew your membership or become a member. It’s only $25 and your membership will help connect you to happenings in our rich arts community and assist LOWAC in fulfilling its mandate to foster and promote the spirit of creativity in the City of Kenora and the surrounding area of Lake of the Woods. More information is available at lowac.ca/membership.
Please plan to join us for the AGM. If that isn’t possible, you may also send your thoughts to: lowacdirectors@gmail.com OR president@lowac.ca
Sincerely,
LOWAC Board of Directors
