Vox Populi is seeking new voices and perspectives for our Board of Directors. Those who are committed to supporting independent community endeavors and the experimental work of early and mid-career artists in Philadelphia–and who want to provide unique ideas and meaningful connections for a small non-profit–are encouraged to apply. We seek passionate individuals who are invested in working collaboratively to provide oversight and governance of an alternative art space, contributing to our fundraising efforts, and growing our community of support.

Individuals with backgrounds in Community Organizing, Strategic Planning, Grant Writing, Graphic Design, Development, and Real Estate, as well as Art Collectors, would be highly desirable additions to the Vox Populi community. You would join professionals working in the fields of Visual, Performing and Literary Arts, Fundraising, Law, Arts Administration, and University-level Art Instruction.

Vox Populi is a member-run, non-profit artist space. Read our Mission & History. A rotating collective of artist-members is the backbone of our organization. Our members seek to dismantle the traditional gallery model by pushing the boundaries of artistic practice and producing a wide and inclusive range of programming and events.

Vox Populi is seeking new Board members aligned to our core values. Over the summer of 2020, the Vox Populi community met to discuss and set an organizational mandate to more intentionally diversify our membership, leadership, and audience, striving to be more reflective of the demographics of the city of Philadelphia. This led to the drafting of a long-form Values Statement and development of a transparent process for transforming the Vox Populi Board of Directors. That process included an amicable parting of ways with several long-standing board members who graciously chose to step aside for new leadership to emerge. Many of those who departed are still active members and supporters of the Vox Populicommunity.

Before considering applying we encourage applicants to review our Values Statement.
