ArtsQuest Program & Subsidiary Boards and Committees

All Program and Subsidiary boards have these primary functions:

  1. To evaluate programs in disciplines for which they are responsible.
  2. To assist in the development and review new programming concepts in arts and cultural disciplines for which they are responsible, regardless of where generated.
  3. To reach out to the community to seek appropriate third party or partnership programming that is consistent with ArtsQuest’s mission and can be incorporated into ArtsQuest programs or facilities.
  4. To encourage and assist staff with the incorporation of education elements in programs wherever possible.
  5. To understand and assist with the financial responsibility for developing and sustaining current and future programs.
