Help shape the future of Ness. We’ve got a few openings on our Board of Directors and we’d love for you to consider joining!

Serving on the Ness Creek Cultural & Recreational Society Board is a meaningful way to support the festival and year-round programming while bringing your own expertise to the table.
We’re especially looking for folks with experience in:
Legal and governance
Finance and accounting
Human resources
Fundraising and sponsorship
Leadership and community engagement

Board members meet about once a month and help guide the future of our organization. It’s a volunteer role full of opportunities for learning, connection, and giving back.

This year’s cultural programming brought people together through stories, movement, music, and shared knowledge. From hands-on learning and meaningful conversations to powerful performances and joyful moments, every experience offered an opportunity to connect, discover, and celebrate the richness of cultures from near and far.
We’re grateful to every artist, knowledge keeper, and facilitator who helped bring these experiences to life and made this year’s programming so memorable.
