Board and Governance
Directed by 15 commissioners appointed by the chief executives of the City of St. Louis and St. Louis County, the current RAC board represents the diversity of business leadership and arts advocacy in St. Louis. With professional experience in finance, law, marketing, healthcare, non-profit management, education, human resources, and artistic practice and arts management, Commissioners meet monthly with the full staff and more frequently for committee meetings.
Commissioners
Meet the RAC Commissioners who currently serve the community. Each Commissioner is appointed either by the Mayor of St. Louis or the St. Louis County Executive and serves a four-year term.
