Connecting Creatives Across the Greater Blue Mountains<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

GBMCAN is a network supporting a vibrant, inclusive, sustainable creative arts community
<\/em><\/strong>through leadership, member services and collaborative partnerships.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.23″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”|600|||||||” text_font_size=”17px” text_line_height=”1.9em” custom_margin=”||45px|||” custom_padding=”14px||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

The Network’s Leadership Team, who sit on the Management Committee, is composed of member volunteers who are accountable for its activities and governance. The Leadership Team is comprised of company directors, which include the President, Vice President, Company Secretary and Treasurer, as well as other members supporting our engagement in various creative arts projects. All contribute to the running of the Network through the project activities they lead, or the administration they perform. Although the formal Management Committee term is three years, the practice of the Network is that all members of the Leadership Team have one-year terms and stand for re-election at each annual general meeting.<\/p>\n

The Network operates on a co-creation model and is committed to supporting member-initiated and collaborative partner projects that maximise community engagement and benefit.<\/p>\n

The Greater Blue Mountains Creative Arts Network (the Network) Management Committee is the leadership team, which is accountable for its activities and governance.

Election to the Management Committee<\/h2>\n

The standard term of a Management Committee appointment is three years; however, our practice is for all committee members to stand for re-election each year. Nominations to fill vacancies on the Management Committee come through the Chairman (President) and are considered by the Management Committee. All casual vacancies filled between AGMs are put before the membership for confirmation at the next AGM.<\/p>\n
