Get Involved!
There is a lot of energy and excitement on the Board to move forward with the Graphic Alliance, but we can't do it without you! So, this is an open call to the Graphic Alliance Membership to join and/or form new committees to address issues that you feel are important to building the core of the Graphic Alliance. The future of the GA is in what we all contribute today!
If you'd like to get involved, you can read more about the existing committees here. Email the Board of Directors with your interest, and put "Committees" in the subject line. Let us know what you want to work on and how you can help.

Year One of the Transitional Directorship
Beginning at the Mission Statement, the Transitional Directorship (TD) was created as the entire membership did not need nor want to watch the sausage-making that is building a community of this scale.
