Volunteer Opportunity | Governance Board
Are you passionate about the performing arts, arts education, and making a positive impact in your community?
Ekko Performing Arts Society is looking for dedicated individuals to join our volunteer Board of Directors!
Our Board is a governance board, meaning members focus on strategic direction, organizational oversight, and supporting Ekko's long-term sustainability rather than day-to-day operations.
Time Commitment: Board members meet once a month, with occasional additional involvement as needed.
We're especially interested in individuals with experience in:
Finance & Accounting
Nonprofit financial management, budgeting, financial oversight, and organizational sustainability.
Communications, Marketing & Fundraising
Strategic communications, community engagement, fundraising, donor relations, and nonprofit development.
Performing Arts
Experience in music, theatre, arts education, or the broader performing arts sector.
Human Resources
HR policies, organizational development, staff relations, and nonprofit governance best practices.
Why Join Ekko's Board?
As a Board member, you'll have the opportunity to contribute your knowledge and perspective, help shape the future of a growing community arts organization, and support accessible performing arts opportunities for people of all ages and backgrounds.
We welcome individuals with diverse experiences, perspectives, and professional backgrounds who share our commitment to community, creativity, and inclusion.

À propos de l'organisation
Ekko Performing Arts Society
Arts, culture et patrimoine
Ekko Performing Arts Society (EPAS) is a registered non-profit organization based in Downtown Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, dedicated to breaking down barriers that limit access to performing arts in our community.
We believe everyone deserves the opportunity to experience the joy, creativity, and connection that come through the performing arts, regardless of age, background, experience, or financial circumstances.
Through music education, community choirs and ensembles, musical theatre productions, workshops, live performances, and community engagement initiatives, we create welcoming and inclusive spaces for people of all ages and abilities to learn, connect, and express themselves.
Community engagement is at the heart of what we do. We work with local organizations, artists, and community partners to create opportunities for participation, collaboration, and connection. Alongside our regular programming, we offer free and low-cost community activities, events, and performances that make the arts more accessible to the broader community. Our commitment to financial accessibility also includes sliding-scale pricing, subsidized programming, and our Gifts of Music scholarship initiative, which helps children and youth access music education regardless of financial circumstances.
As a community-driven organization, volunteers play an important role in bringing our mission to life. From supporting events and performances to assisting with outreach, fundraising, administration, and community initiatives, volunteers help us build a more connected, creative, and inclusive community.
