What does it mean to serve on a Board?
What does it mean to serve on a board?
As a board member, you share your wisdom, time, passion, and love for empowering Northsiders of all backgrounds to express themselves creatively through music. Prior board experience is not required.
This is a working board, where all board members are engaged in Hopewell’s work to bring music education to everyone in North Minneapolis, regardless of race, income, ability, or musical background. The board supports the Executive Director and staff in ensuring that the mission is being fulfilled through actions such as attending events, cultivating relationships or making an annual donation at an amount which is meaningful to you. Board members are fiscally, legally, and morally responsible for the organization.
If you’d like to observe a board meeting before applying, send an email to: board@hopewellmusic.com.
This is an unpaid, volunteer position.
