“We are so grateful for the years that all of our outgoing board members have gifted us and we couldn’t be more excited about the new board and forward direction of Gualala Arts,” said Executive Director David “Sus” Susalla.
This year’s annual members meeting was an Online! event, which began Wednesday at 3 pm. The Annual Membership Meeting provides an opportunity for Gualala Arts members to meet nominees for the 2021 Gualala Arts Board of Directors and vote for the proposed slated of Gualala Arts Officers. Gualala Arts also takes this opportunity to appreciate our volunteers and present Volunteer of the Year and Heart Beat Awards to volunteers. Only Gualala Arts members were eligible to attend, make nominations and/or vote. Below are the outgoing board members and the newly elected members for 2021.
