Committee Reports
Membership / Still devising plan for membership drive. Some fall advertising needs to be booked now. Happy to have some input on themes/hooks for the drive if anyone has a brilliant marketing idea
Membership is up slightly with new members due to airport, filberg demo artists, and studio tour registration
Currently offering 18-month membership to cover last half of 2016.
We have received enquiries from Oceanview Arts Council (Parksville/Qualicum), Campbell River Arts AND Cowichan Arts Council in the last month... something is working! They are all interested in at least keeping one another informed. We have traded memberships with Campbell River and opened the Studio Tour to them. Offered a trial 6-month membership to any interested CRArts members.
Group Membership Policy
When the art group is acting as a group, for example, when you are represented on the Studio Tour as a single collective. But when you are representing yourselves individually, then you are individual members, and need an individual membership which then entitles you to all the benefits of membership for yourself as an artist.
Building Committee / New Home / Centre for the Arts Conversations / Public Art Policy
