Glass House Collective’s Advisory Council
The deadline to apply is January 15.
Applications are now live to apply for Glass House Collective’s Advisory Council. GHC has always worked towards meeting the needs of our community, and we are creating this council because we want to ensure that residents have a say in the decisions that affect our neighborhood. We believe that the true experts of this community are the people who live and work here, and we value your perspective and insight.
To that end, we are only accepting applications from people who live, work, and own in the Glass Farm Neighborhood.
The Advisory Council will provide input on Glass House Collective’s projects, lend knowledge for community initiatives, and participate in a training program to build neighborhood capacity. Participants will play an active role in decision-making for the future of the neighborhood, meeting to discuss GHC and community issues.
Members will be expected to participate in the following initiatives:
- Glass Street Gateway Intersection Plan
- Equitable Development Committee
- Glass House Collective Comprehensive Report
- Artist Activation Grant
- Glass Street LIVE 2021
The Advisory Council members will also participate in a community organizing training program aimed at building power at the neighborhood level called “Sway: The People’s Guide to Community Organizing”. This program consists of eight guided sessions with both residents and artists through a curriculum developed by CALEB.
If selected to join the council, you’ll be making a big commitment. We value your time and effort, and we’re providing a stipend of $1,500 for council members to participate in the GHC input sessions and Sway. Funds will be distributed at various intervals throughout 2021. Our community is diverse and it’s crucial that the makeup of this council reflects that. We value all participants sharing their perspectives and will be accepting applications accordingly.
