Kaneland Arts Initiative is governed by a board of directors and the Kaneland Community Unit School District No. 302.

They were founded by Kaneland Elementary School Art Teachers, Theresa Funke and Bonnie Whildin.

They operate with a staff of two: Executive Director, Maria Dripps-Paulson and Artistic Director, which has recently become an open position.
