Board members must live in either Stearns, Benton, Sherburne, or Wright County, and serve a three-year term. Executive Director Leslie LeCuyer says they would like to diversify the board more:

"We do work hard to develop relationships and service to all residents of our four county region. We are targeting BIPOC and LGBTQ communities for a new board member so that we can represent those communities better."

LeCuyer says being on the board is a very gratifying experience, and while serving on the board is a volunteer position board members do receive a small stipend. The CMAB is one of Minnesota's 11 regional arts councils and distributes public funds and McKnight Foundation awards.
