Atlantic Flamenco Productions Society (AF)  known as Atlantic Flamenco is actively seeking engaged and dedicated individuals to join our Board of Directors.

We are particularly interested in individuals with a background in finance or accounting.

Our organization 

AFP is a non-profit organization founded in 2007 and based in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Our mandate is to promote and disseminate flamenco and Spanish culture in the Atlantic region. We produce artistic, cultural and educational events enriching community life in the city, province, and region. Our main activities currently are our performance series ‘Flamenco Nights’, and the Maria Osende Flamenco Company, one of Canada’s leading flamenco dance and music ensembles and outreach programs. We also offer workshop and professional development opportunities for those interested in learning flamenco in partnership with the Flamenco Dance School Maria Osende.

They contribute to all aspects of strategic and operational planning and development, fundraising and financial management, communications, community outreach, and partnership development for the organization. AFP is a ‘hands-on,’ collaborative organization and our Board members contribute to both high-level and detailed work.
