    Description

    Board of Directors

    McKoy Dance Project (MDP) is a boundary-breaking contemporary dance company dedicated to increasing access in the arts and amplifying the voices of BIPOC and queer communities. We present powerful, story-driven dance works and community-centered programs that challenge tradition and celebrate identity.

    Founded in NYC, with plans to expand to Miami and London, MDP is building a global, inclusive platform for dance that redefines who it’s for, how it’s made, and where it lives.

    As we grow our reach in Miami, NYC, and beyond, we’re seeking new board members to help shape the future of MDP.

    Board Member Role: What We’re Looking For

    MDP is building a mission-aligned, working board of visionary, passionate leaders who can offer:

    Strategic Insight – Guidance as we expand to new markets and scale sustainably

    Fundraising Support – Connections, advocacy, and/or direct financial contributions

    Community Connection – Ties to cultural, philanthropic, or local communities

    Creative Thinking – Enthusiasm for arts innovation, inclusion, and impact

    Ideal backgrounds include: nonprofit leadership, finance, marketing, law, arts management, DEI, philanthropy, or community development—but all champions of our mission are welcome.

    MDP Board Commitment

    • Term Length: 3 years, with max 3 terms or until a suitable replacement is found
    • Meetings: Quarterly board meetings (virtual or hybrid), with optional committee involvement
    • Annual Give/Get: Support MDP through a meaningful personal contribution and/or fundraising efforts
    • Engagement: Be a vocal advocate for MDP in your networks and community
