We're looking for new SATP board members!
Help guide SATP as we continue to offer creative development and vocational support to a rapidly growing membership of over 200 live performing art practitioners and organizations across the province.
Interested in connecting more deeply with your theatre community? Have a passion for supporting the live-performing arts? Read below for what that might look like as a board member!
Roles and Responsibilities of the Board of Directors
SATP is governed by a volunteer board of directors representing arts administrators, theatre producers, non-profit organizations, technicians, and vocational practitioners in the live performing arts in Saskatchewan.
The board is responsible for the oversight of SATP and sets its policy and direction while guiding the organization to fulfill its mission, vision, and values. The board also oversees the development, approval, and monitoring of the strategic plan.
Skills/Demographics
We are seeking potential board members who are passionate about the value and potential of the live performing arts in Saskatchewan. We are hoping to find board members who can contribute to some of the following capacities on our board:
Energetic people, who are not already overextended with other commitments, eager to put their enthusiasm for the arts to work;
Skills/Experience - finance/funding; advocacy; note-taking and summarizing; legal;
Geography – Anywhere in Saskatchewan, with a particular interest in individuals from Regina, North Battleford, Prince Albert, and Swift Current;
Demographic background – Individuals with a variety of experiences due to gender, age, and ethnicity.
Past experience on a board of directors, while not necessary, will be beneficial.
At this time, we are only accepting applications from Saskatchewan residents.
Time Commitment
The board of directors meets virtually once per month. Board committees meet throughout the year and decide on the amount of involvement collectively (typically a minimum of quarterly online meetings). Board members are expected to be responsive to communications about SATP matters and give input as requested, and attend and support the staff as organizational volunteers at events, as capacity allows.
