Van Ness Main Street (VNMS), a community-building non-profit organization, is accepting applications through December 11th, 2019 for a full-time Executive Director to manage its Main Street Program.

VNMS’s mission is to make Van Ness a beautiful, sustainable, walkable and vibrant economic and cultural hub. This is accomplished through supporting the growth of existing businesses, attracting new local enterprises and activating local cultural institutions. VNMS has achieved success by attracting and supporting local businesses through working with city funding and community fundraising. It has developed a dynamic schedule of events including music and the arts, a farmer’s market, Barks and Brews, local restaurant special events, and UDC-based speakers and tours. It has funded streetscape and public art improvements. The new ED will work with the Board to build the next strategic plan. Goals include building a greater level of engagement and funding, to support and grow the work VNMS does in the community.
