The Suffield Arts Council is looking for new leadership and involvement from the greater Suffield Community.  The current president, Joan Roberts, will be stepping down after a long tenure as president.  With an increased work load and no longer living in close proximity to Suffield, CT, Mrs. Roberts will be resigning at the end of June. 

The organization is looking for someone who is organized and can provide the leadership needed to continue the good work of this fine organization.  There is no residency requirement – one does not have to live in Suffield.  Although artistic skills or interests may be considered a plus, they are not required. 

The Arts Council is a privately funded, 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that has been a staple to the town of Suffield, CT for over 42 years.  It has been working to enrich the community through the support and sponsorship of the arts.  It hosts a variety of quality events of an artistic nature, from music to drama to art, where we try to pique interests of many ages.  Sponsored events are educational and/or entertaining. 

The Suffield Arts Council gives back to the town and surrounding communities by offering educational programs for the local schools, an Annual Arts Scholarship Competition and the promotion of local artist through exhibits at the town library’s Art Gallery.   It has been a member of the Suffield Chamber of Commerce for the past few years.
