2026 Call for Board Members

SNAP is seeking 2-5 new folks to join our Board of Directors. If you have a passion or curiosity for art, printmaking, or arts organizations, we would love to connect with you! Board directors are our community liaisons — building and nurturing connections with, and for, the communities our members live, work, and create in. Interested individuals should have an openness to thought, curiosity and tenacity to re-envision systems of accountability, sustainability, and equity.
