Edmonds, WALocal News

The City of Edmonds Arts Commission (EAC) announces an opening for a four-year term in 2022, inviting applications from Edmonds residents who are enthusiastic about the arts. The deadline for application submissions is November 23, 2021, at 5:00 pm. The commission, composed of seven members with staggered terms, requires that four members have professional art backgrounds, although the current opening is a general position. Candidates with a strong interest in literary arts are especially encouraged to apply, though this is not a strict requirement. Since its establishment in 1975, the EAC has been dedicated to integrating the arts into community life, with initiatives that include public art displays, summer concerts, and the Write on the Sound writers’ conference.

In light of the ongoing pandemic, the commission is also focused on ensuring accessibility for its programs. Interested individuals can find detailed information and application materials available online. For further inquiries, interested parties are encouraged to reach out via email.
