Holliston Arts Council Looking for New Members!

Are you new to town and looking for ways to get involved in arts and culture? Or have you lived in town for a number of years and have a passion for the arts but haven’t had time to volunteer until now? Now’s your chance. The Holliston Arts Council is looking for new, enthusiastic members to join the team.

Arts Council members will be involved in planning the Summer Concert Series and will also take part in a community grant program made possible by the Massachusetts Cultural Council. The grants fund local projects in the arts, sciences, and humanities and ignite the creative fires of children and seniors, bring residents together at festivals and outdoor concerts, and provide lively cultural experiences in schools, libraries, and more.

Interested Holliston residents are required to attend one
meeting before they are appointed by the Town. Following the meeting, prospective members are asked to send a letter of interest to the Board of Selectmen, and upon Board approval are sworn in by the Town Clerk. Within the first three months of joining the Council, new members will go through a brief online training program to educate themselves on how the council works, how meetings are conducted, the grants process, and more. Arts Council members are asked to serve a two-year term.

Interested residents are strongly encouraged to attend the April meeting. For more information, contact Fabre Sanders at fabre@comcast.net or 508.429.2250.
