We’re always excited to welcome new champions of the arts. Here’s a quick look at what board service means at Collide:

 

✅ A passion for the arts.
Have you ever gotten goosebumps during curtain calls? Whether you’re just discovering dance or are a lifelong patron—we love folks from all walks of life who believe in the power of creativity.

​

✅ Strategic thinking with heart.
Your collaborative spirit and insights—financial, operational, or community-focused—help us grow and thrive in a changing arts landscape.

​

✅ Advocacy.
Board members help us build relationships, open doors, and spread the word. If you’ve ever said “You have to see this show,” you’re already an advocate for the arts.

​

✅ Stewardship and support.
We ask board members to attend monthly meetings (in-person or virtual) and contribute in ways that are meaningful and manageable—through giving, fundraising, or connecting us with others who care.
