Treasurer and Membership Coordinator
​Barb Sapergia​

​Treasurer
​As ‘Bean-Counter’, Barb keeps track of the revenue/expenses of our Victoria FCA Chapter.   She has been in this position since 2017, following Mary Conley who served for many years before her.  

Treasurer Duties

• Record income as it comes in (memberships, workshops and exhibition fees)
• Record expenses as they are paid (exhibitions, workshops, meetings or the general administration of our Chapter)
• Send receipts to members
• Balance bank statements and update the Board at meetings
• Pay bills as they arrive (insurance, Arts BC, etc)

Membership Coordinator
The Membership Coordinator position goes hand-in-hand with the Treasurer position.  As new members join, the Membership Coordinator updates the Membership list and sends the contact info to the Web Manager to post and to the MailChimp Manager to update email lists.  The Coordinator welcomes new members as they join our Chapter and explains procedures to new members trying to navigate the FCA requirements if needed.  Once a year our list is sent to Vancouver FCA for reconciliation.

Membership Coordinator Duties
(Membership fees are now being processed by Vancouver)

• Maintains database of current members as the info is received from Vancouver.  
• Circulates the list to the Web Manager (Gord Smith), the Grapevine Editor (Elaine Hughes) and Board Members as required for FCA business.  
• Answer occasional questions from  members

About the Board
Serving on the Board is a great way to get to know the movers and shakers of the Chapter.  I feel that being part of the Board has also made me a better painter, being surrounded by such a fun bunch of talented
artists sharing ideas and inspiration, motivating me to get to work!
Email me at barb.sapergia@shaw.ca if you have any questions.  If I don’t know the answer, I have an entire Board of good people to ask.
