ECB is Growing Our Board!
Greetings,
Evergreen City Ballet, a top performance dance studio and 501c3, is accepting nominations for additional Board members. ECB has a 30-year legacy in South King County, and is embarking on an exciting new era under the leadership of Artistic Director Maximiliano Guerra. We are excited to expand our board’s expertise, diversity, and breadth in support of Maestro Guerra’s vision and grow ECB into one of the top ballet schools in the Northwest.
During this nominating cycle the Board Development Committee will be accepting self-nominations and third-party nominations (nominating someone other than yourself) for board member positions. If you know someone, personally or professionally, who has the personal characteristics and relationships in the areas identified in the 2024 Nominating Priorities (see below), we encourage you to nominate them. By accepting both self-nominations and third-party nominations it will allow us to collect a large, diverse pool of candidates for board member positions.
Please submit your nominations by filling out the form here or using the button below. A board member will reach out to each nominee to understand their interest and provide a prospectus with more information on serving on the ECB Board. Questions can be emailed to board@evergreencityballet.org. Thank you for your support of Evergreen City Ballet. We look forward to reviewing your nomination!
Sincerely,
Brian Wallace
ECB Board President
Nominating Priorities for 2024-2025
Below are the areas we’ve identified as most important to advance ECB towards our goals and promote the art of dance through education, performance and outreach. We are always looking for passionate, energetic and supportive volunteers who love the arts to help fulfill ECB’s mission. Contact us at board@evergreencityballet.org if you are interested in becoming a board member or volunteering in other ways.
Development/Fundraising - Evergreen City Ballet is seeking an individual to join our Board with the skills, network, and resources to help us further grow by deepening our community relationships and seeking new connections. We are also seeking someone who is knowledgeable or experienced with donor management, corporate fundraising, and public speaking. Experience in community or government leadership positions is a plus.
Marketing - Evergreen City Ballet is looking for someone to help us promote our mission, cultivate a more robust brand, and expand our audience reach and viewership through public events and community partnerships.
Real Estate - Evergreen City Ballet is seeking an individual with experience in commercial real estate to help us obtain a long-term facility to support ECB’s growth. Experience with both commercial leases and purchases, capital campaigns and knowledge of Renton’s commercial market are a plus.
