Believe it or not, another year has gone by and once again we’re asking for your nominations. That’s right: the time has come to begin the election process for the next AIGA Charlotte Board of Directors. As always, we are seeking dedicated design professionals who have a passion for advancing our craft and strengthening our creative community. Being a board member not only allows you to be more involved; you can help mold and shape the future of our chapter too.

Keep in mind that our creative community features more than just designers. Having copywriters, developers, account executives, project managers, photographers, videographers, and more on the board only creates a much stronger whole. We’re always hoping for nominations that offer a breadth of talent and experience for the upcoming term.

We are specifically looking to fill the following roles, in addition to an open enrollment in other areas:

• Programming Director
• Partnership Director
• Student Groups Manager
• Programming Manager
• Communications Manager – Copywriter / Editor

To nominate yourself, or someone else, please fill out the form below. When nominating someone else, please include your information as well as the name of the individual, their email address, phone number, and a short recommendation of why the person you are nominating is a good candidate. You do not need to nominate an individual for a specific position. AIGA Charlotte’s Nominating Committee will be tasked with matching nominees to appropriate positions.

Nominees will then be contacted by a Board representative and asked to participate in an informational interview session in late June. At this session, current board members will discuss our positions and the responsibilities attached to those roles. Nominees will participate in informal discussions with current board members to help determine the best fit for each nominee.

If you have any questions about the responsibilities of being a board member, please contact AIGA Charlotte’s President, Bree Basham. The nominations period starts today, and will close June 18th. We look forward to hearing from you.
