Committee Roles
It takes a village…
The tour is a cooperative, volunteer-driven effort from all member artists who have made this event a premier venue for Whatcom County artists for 30 years. The tour can’t happen without your active participation in its production.
-
​Required attendance at general meetings, generally 3 per year
-
Every artist is required to contribute time doing tasks or serving on a committee. No exceptions.
-
Tasks will be clearly defined and most require no more than a few hours. A sign-up sheet at the first general meeting will outline the tasks and estimated time required.
