Weston Media Seeking Board Member
The Weston Media Center (WMC) has an opening on its seven member Board. Board members serve for three years and the positions are renewable. Candidates are approved by current members. The current board is a diverse group made up of those with fiduciary backgrounds, media-making skills, experience in the arts, and a dedication to innovation and inclusivity. We aim to expand the benefits of the “digital village” in ways that enrich our lives here in Weston.
The board generally meets a minimum of once per month, more often if needed. We are responsible for planning for future growth and development of the WMC through programming, marketing, and fundraising. We help to coordinate with other Town organizations and assist with outreach to like-minded nonprofits and affinity groups.
The Board benefits from a variety of skills and experience. For the current openings, we seek to add members with skills in the following professional areas:
- Development or fundraising;
- Town government or Town involvement, e.g. in the schools, Council on Aging, etc.;
- Continuing education in the arts or technology fields;
- Management of a local cable access station;
- Legal and regulatory;
- Familiarity with modern media hardware and software, e.g., audio and video recording, media storage and transmission
We realize no candidate will have expertise in all of the areas listed above. Most importantly, we
are looking for individuals who can work well with a like-minded team to grow the WMC, a
valued service in town, consistent with the mission of the WMC.
