New Board Members Needed
/Seeking New Board Members
LANA is actively seeking prospective Board members who feel a connection with the mission of the lyre in our time as expressed in LANA’s mission statement:
The Lyre Association of North America is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization whose mission is to initiate, to inspire, and to support the sounding of the lyre in artistic, pedagogical, and therapeutic activities in North America and throughout the world.
At this time, we are particularly in need of someone interested to serve in our Economic Realm. Experience with spreadsheets and database management would be a plus, though these skills are not required.
We are an active board, and members are asked to serve in various working groups as needed for the smooth running of our organization. At present, the LANA Board working groups are organized by their connection to the designations of Steiner's social threefolding model:
Cultural Realm: Events (Conference, Study, Workshops), Publications, and Website/Blog
Economic Realm: Finance, Music Sales, and Lyre Rental program
Rights Realm: Membership, Lyre Connection program, Outreach, and Governance
Over the years, the Lyre Association has increased its offerings to members with services that include blog posts, music sales, publications, advertising, and lyre rental services. In order for these programs to be sustained, we need to have a complete Board and more robust Working Groups with non-Board members.
As of July 2026, LANA will have two Board vacancies. If you have a potential interest in joining LANA's Board of Directors in any capacity, or perhaps one of our Working Groups, and you would like to know more about our organizational structure, please contact me at nancy@lyreassociation.org.

Lyre Association of North America
