Officers and Members

TCG's board of directors represents a diverse range of geographic, cultural, aesthetic and professional viewpoints. The board held three two-day meetings in 2004-2005, with additional committee meetings held throughout the year. Board members are elected for an initial term of four years, and are eligible to be re-elected for an additional term of two years. We would like to express our appreciation to all of our board members for their generous donation of time, expertise and counsel throughout 2004-2005.
