Board Member Applicant

Constellation Stage & Screenseeks applicants who are passionate about supporting theater in Bloomington and Southern Indiana and willing to make a commitment to advancing Constellation's mission and vision. The board is composed of people with a broad range of backgrounds and skills, and no prior experience on a theater board is necessary. Skills such as financial, legal, operations, development, HR, management, and more are required to successfully run Constellation Stage & Screen as a $2.1m operation. Additionally we are always looking for Board members who can help expand the scope of our impact to new communities.

Constellation Stage & Screen Board applicants will generally start by serving for 3-6 months on a board committee to learn about the organization and judge if serving on the board is a good fit for them. After that period, both parties will assess if membership seems like a good fit and, if so, such membership entails a three-year commitment.

The Constellation Stage & Screen Board Member agreement describes expectations for Board membership:

• Attend a monthly board meeting and participate in the leadership processes.
• Be a member of at least one committee, which typically meets monthly.
• Make an annual financial contribution which is meaningful to you and participate in fundraising events.
• Help expand and develop Constellation Stage & Screens audience and supporters.

Constellation Stage & Screen seeks to create an inclusive, welcoming environment and encourages anyone with interest to apply.
