AGM - Exec Nominations
Posting Date: 23-09-2011
The Scottish Artists Union AGM takes place this Saturday (24th September 2011) at 5.30pm at Streetlevel, 103 Trongate, Glasgow.
At the AGM the Executive Committee is elected for the coming year. Usually a significant number of the Executive Committee continue from year to year. There is a maximum number of members of the Executive specified in Constituion and unless the number of nominations exceeds the maximum there is no requirement for a vote.
Members of the Union can be co-opted onto the Executive Committee at any time during the year, but the AGM is an important opportunity for individuals to put their names forward. Both Full and Associate members of the Union are eligible to serve on the Executive Committee. All members of the Union will have received a Form with the Notice of the AGM. The Form enables motions to be proposed and also for nominations and self-nominations to be made to the Exec.
At present Office Bearers are agreed by the Executive Committee rather than by election. The length of time Office Bearers can serve in any particular Office is limited by the Constitution.
The following members of the past year's Executive will be standing for re-election:
Chris Biddlecombe
Rowena Comrie
Rose Frain
Chris Fremantle
Laura Hunter
Ginny Hutchison
Chris Kelly
Joyce MacFarlane
Peter McCaughey
Lorna Mitchell
Janie Nicoll
Fiona Pilgrim
Penny Sharp
The Scottish Artists Union Executive always needs more volunteers.
