NOMINATE YOURSELF OR SOMEONE YOU KNOW TO BECOME A BARTOW-PELL BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The Board guides the museum in its overall mission working on strategic vision, objectives, policies, and priorities for both long- and short-term goals, ensuring its financial viability as a place-based community anchor, educational institution, and cultural destination.

To find out if being a Bartow-Pell Board Member is a good fit for you, please contact Donna Elmer to arrange an interview, meet current Board Members, and learn about board membership expectations.

We have several openings for Directors who will serve three-year terms. The Board convenes eight times each year in a combination of in-person and virtual meetings.

The Board of Directors encourages people of all backgrounds and experiences to apply. It is a rewarding way to give back to the community, make new friendships, and gain valuable experience.
