BASA invites arts organisations to join Boardbank

Business and Arts South Africa (BASA) is inviting arts organisations in need of board members to apply to be part of the upcoming BASA Boardbank event. Taking place on 31 October at Gallery Momo in Johannesburg, the event once again brings skilled professionals and pre-selected arts organisations together in a relaxed and dynamic fashion.
BASA invites arts organisations to join Boardbank

The arts organisations applying to be part of the BASA Boardbank must fulfil the requirement of having a constitution, a board structure with defined roles and the need for candidates to fulfil positions on their board.

The aim of this event on BASA's 2012 calendar is multifold. Alongside giving arts organisations access to passionate, skilled professionals as potential board members, it also acts as a connector for those professionals who want to engage with an arts organisation in a real and effective way.

Sustainable arts sector

This is achieved by providing professionals with the opportunity to voluntarily sit on the board of an arts organisation - thereby helping make the arts sector more sustainable by improving corporate governance, while providing business professionals with the opportunity to expand their own
social investment responsibility within the arts sector.

Arts organisations with a well-developed board structure and looking to recruit professionals as potential board members, can email a one page motivational letter and a copy of the organisation's constitution to az.oc.asab@ofni. The closing date for applications is 25 October 2012.

BASA has made available a limited travel grant, eligible to two arts organisation that have been selected to participate at the Boardbank and located outside Johannesburg.
