Help Shape Wisconsin Craft

Are you interested in getting more involved in WI Craft to build support and interest for craft and craft makers around the state? Would you like to develop and share your leadership skills? If yes, we invite you to consider joining our WI Craft Board of Directors. Board of Directors commit to 2-year terms and run from April through March of the following year. Current Openings on the Board are: Member At-Large positions (2 available) Members at large-attend six Board meetings annually and are encouraged to join at least one committee. At-large members are encouraged to share their skills and services as needed throughout the year with the hopeful intention that they eventually become a Chairperson or Officer. Membership Chairperson (1 available) Membership Chairperson attends six Board meetings annually and chairs two membership committee meetings per year. Willingness to learn how to use our membership software is necessary.  Attorney (1 available) In our dreams, an Attorney familiar with non-profit organizations and love of the arts would attend our board meetings 6 times a year and give advice and assistance when needed. If you would like to join the Board of Directors or have more questions, please reach out to Jean Wells by    March 6, 2023: at info@wisconsincraft.org
