The Board of Directors strives to broadly represent Napa County’s community, including, but not limited to, working artists and representatives of arts organizations, community members, business leaders, educators, arts patrons and recipients of arts services, with geographic and cultural diversity within Napa County.

In addition to normal board governance activities, Arts Council board members provide strategic guidance to the organization’s leadership and serve as hands-on advocates for its mission. Read the Board Roles & Responsibilities sheet here.
