As a volunteer organization, our success relies on the service and leadership of our members. We strive to build a community of polymer clay enthusiasts, artists, and craftspeople. Serving on the Board is one of many ways our members can support the Association and we hope you will join the Board and help our polymer world expand and strengthen.
The time has come to create a slate of nominees for the 2021-2023 and 2021-2022 terms. The IPCA Bylaws were updated to ensure consistency in leadership by staggering the number of officers elected each term. Additionally, the office titles and duties were updated to reflect the needs of the IPCA at this time.
Nomination and Election Timeline
Applications must be received by midnight EST on Sunday, 21 March 2021. The application information will be published (to support the voting) on Monday, 22 March 2021, and the voting will begin on 23 March 2021 and close on 30 March 2021. The new Board takes office on 1 April 2021. Per the bylaws, should there be only one nominee for an office, no voting is held for that office.
