In our ever growing desire to work with outside organizations, the FWA Not-for-Profit committee has a wonderful opportunity to offer in conjunction with the Arts & Business Council a Five Week Board Development Program. The purpose is to provide interested business people with the opportunity to become involved with arts organizations in a way that is both meaningful and satisfying and to provide worthy arts organizations with intelligent, informed and committed board members. The five evening sessions will consist of:
- The state of arts in NY
- Governance requirements of board members
- Accounting in the non-profit world
- Fund-Raising - the why and how, and
- Introduction to potential arts organizations as the initial step for individual board placement.
The 5 session board training cost is discounted for FWA Members to $400, Non-Member fee is $500.
Please contact Fran Smyth fsmyth@artsandbusiness-ny.org for more information and registration for the open house and/or this five week program.
The FWA Not-for-Profit Committee will be hosting a number of programs this year on
Women & Philanthropy
Transitioning into the Not-for-Profit World
Not-for-Profits Reaching Globally
The Impact of the Arts in NYC
As well as Board Membership for Not-for-Profits and other topics still in the pipeline.
Please join us and become more involved with the FWA Not-for-Profit Committee for our 2008-2009 program year. We are always interested in bright, creative and industrious new committee members.
