Board Members

Join PTE’s Board of Directors!

Prairie Theatre Exchange (PTE) Board of Directors is seeking exceptional individuals to join our volunteer Board of Directors. Specifically, we are seeking board members with legal or financial expertise, but those with other experience are welcome to apply.

We welcome candidates from various backgrounds, representing the rich tapestry of pluralism in our community. We embrace and celebrate the unique perspectives of individuals from IBPOC, 2SLGBTQ+, and other communities protected from discrimination in Canada. We also extend a special invitation to those new to not-for-profit governance, as we believe in fostering new perspectives and nurturing the next generation of leaders.

The role of a PTE Board Director is one of stewardship, where you will help guide the organization with leadership, upholding our vision, mission, values, and strategic priorities. Your commitment will involve attending monthly meetings, eight times annually on Monday evenings, with additional opportunities to serve on a committee of the Board, further engaging with our artistic community.

Expectations:

Board appointments are typically for a three-year term, with options for renewal. Being a board member does not preclude you from working at PTE as an artist, technician, or in other capacities (administrative staff excluded).

PTE Board members are asked to support through the purchase of seasonal subscriptions and an annual donation that holds personal significance.

Application Process:

To express your interest, please submit a brief letter to the attention of the Nominating Committee (board@pte.mb.ca) along with your current curriculum vitae (resume). This is a momentous time for PTE, as we envision the renewal and the revitalization of the downtown core. We seek Directors who are passionate about navigating change, igniting imagination, and leaving an indelible mark on the cultural landscape.

Expressions of interest will be accepted on a rolling basis, or until they are filled. Your consideration in joining our Board is appreciated.
