Our first full week of voting on our union is wrapping up! Follow our Instagram to see why many faculty across SVA are voting “yes” this week.

Have you received your ballot yet? If not, this is an important reminder that you have until 5pm this coming Tuesday, April 29th to request a ballot from the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB). 

If you have not received a ballot yet, please call the NLRB at (212)-264 0300; or you can call the labor board agent directly at (212) 776-8645.

The number will likely go to voicemail, but leaving a message is all that is required to have a new ballot sent. Simply state your name, that you are a faculty member participating in the School of Visual Arts vote, and your correct address. The NLRB will only call you back if they have questions regarding your request. 

If you have any additional questions, you can visit our website and FAQ page. You can also see our running responses to some of the SVA administration’s most recent communications here.
