Board of Directors

The NOW Society Board of Directors are passionate about the value of creative energy in the community. NOW is incredibly thankful to its Board and volunteers, they add remarkable elements of expertise and personal commitment to the Society.  A democratically elected, six-member volunteer Board of Directors currently governs the Society, working closely with NOW Artistic Director Lisa Cay Miller to evaluate our operations, sustainability, capacity and growth. NOW is a non-hierarchical Society.
