CALL FOR BOARD MEMBERS

We are currently seeking new board members for the 2026–2028 term to help guide Gallery Gachet into its next chapter, strengthening our role as a vital voice in contemporary and experimental art, while continuing to operate as a community-rooted space in Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside and Chinatown.

APPLICATION DEADLINE

Deadline: March 20, 2026

INTRODUCTION TO ORGANIZATION  

Gallery Gachet stands at a transformative moment in its history. From recent renovations to the expansion of our programming, this period marks a significant shift in how we continue to grow, adapt, and serve our communities. None of this work would be possible without the care, labour, and vision of our Board of Directors, whose stewardship has sustained the organization across its rich and evolving history.

DIVERSITY & INCLUSION STATEMENT

Our work centers BIPOC artists, artists living with mental health experiences, emerging and experimental practitioners, and those working at the core of critical engagement with the urgent social and political conditions of our time. We remain committed to art grounded in lived experience, where artistic growth, care, and cultural production function not only as expression, but as survival, resistance, and collective transformation.

BOARD MEMBER POSITION DESCRIPTION

Gallery Gachet’s board provides governance to our non profit organization. As Gachet moves through a period of organizational restructuring and renewal, Board Members will support the greater sustainability and operations by strengthening our governance process.

Board service involves an average time commitment of approximately four hours per month, including meetings and occasional committee participation. Gallery Gachet offers professional development support for board members as part of our commitment to shared learning, growth, and collective stewardship.

APPLICATION PROCESS

We welcome applicants from a wide range of backgrounds, including artists, social workers, and individuals with experience in mental health, community-based practice, governance, finance, or organizational leadership. We are especially open to younger and emerging arts workers who are interested in learning more about non-profit governance and contributing meaningfully to the cultural sector.

If you are invested in the role art can play within community, care, and social transformation, we warmly encourage you to apply. Deadline for applications is March 20, 2026. Email expressions of interest to moroti@gachet.org
