Good morning Emerging Leaders,

I wanted to make sure you saw the below announcement that nominations for our Americans for the Arts Advisory Councils are now open...and we want you (to be a member of the Emerging Leaders Council)! Unlike our other Advisory Councils, this Council is not discipline specific, but rather is based on where you are in your career. The Council has amazing emerging leaders working in public art, youth education, granting, performing arts, and more.

Nominations close Friday, October 4, 2019 at 5:00 PM EST and can be submitted by filling out the nomination form<https://www.americansforthearts.org/by-program/networks-and-councils/advisory-council-nominations>. Members and non-members are welcome to submit nominations; however, nominees must be members of Americans for the Arts. For questions about membership, visit our online Member center<http://americansforthearts.org/membership> or contact membership@artsusa.org<mailto:membership@artsusa.org>.
Let me know if you have any questions or want to know more about serving on the Council!

Best,
Cristyn

Specific roles may vary depending on the focus and needs of the topic area for which the Advisory Council is responsive.
