Our Organization

Tiger Hills Arts Association Inc. is guided by a Board composed of directors and representatives from different sub groups and communities within the Association boundaries. The wide range of interests exhibited by this Board, elected from various communities in the Tiger Hills area, provides the scope to meet the cultural needs of Tiger Hills area residents.

Although we depend heavily on volunteer work in the operation of our programs, we do employ a full time Executive Director,  an Administrative Assistant and whenever possible one summer student.
