The best nonprofit organizations engage in regular leadership retreats. They are an opportunity to step back, realign around mission, and strengthen leadership collaboration. That is hashtag in action!

BoardStrong was thrilled to join the Board of Directors of The Roxbury Arts Group on March 14th for its leadership retreat. They reaffirmed their commitment to infusing the heart of Catskills communities with the power of the arts

They spent the day reviewing their programs and setting goals for the coming year. Their new Executive Director Patrick Barnes unveiled an exciting 2026 season. https://roxburyartsgroup.org/

We truly admire all of the work they have done in pursuit of hashtag hashtag .
