join the board!
Terrain Exhibitions is accepting applications for our 2026-2028 board of directors.
This search is seeking Illinoisans from all backgrounds with an interest in bringing art to neighborhoods. We’re prioritizing folks with an interest in notetaking, nonprofit bookkeeping, communications, and programming.
In 2026, Terrain will be working on our Artist Residency program and public programming. In 2027, Terrain will host a Biennial, residency, and public programs. We’d love to work with you to make things happen!
how the board works:
Terrain is 100% organized and operated by our working board of volunteers. Board meetings happen virtually on a monthly or bi-monthly basis, with working meetings and asynchronous work happening between meetings. Board members can expect to work on average one hour a week, with more time and availability expected around our Biennial and public programs.
Right now our board is a team of 6. We’re looking for 5 incoming board members to join our team for the next two years, with the option to stay on for another cycle.
