Join Our Board
There has never been a more exciting time to join this amazing volunteer board. Considerations for the Board are: skills related to strategic thinking and decision making; skills related to education, financial accounting, law, government services, strategic development, business development, heritage preservation, museology, tourism, conservation and to the operations of a museum collection; representation from the province's official linguistic communities; and history of being active and involved at the community level. The composition of the Committee must reflect the gender and linguistic representation, as well as the cultural and geographic diversity of the province.
Each Board Member will be responsible for familiarizing themselves with VHEMI By-Laws and 2017 Business Plan. Board members must also be willing to attend and participate in Board meetings on a monthly basis and serve a minimum of two years.
