The Cana­di­an New Music Net­work invites You to help shape our future! We are look­ing for nom­i­na­tions to our Board of Direc­tors. You can nom­i­nate your­self, or anoth­er indi­vid­ual.

Expec­ta­tions of your time would be 3–4 hours a month, includ­ing meet­ings, and group or indi­vid­ual tasks. We invite you to join us with your ener­gy and ideas, as we con­tin­ue our nation­al web of arts professionals.
