If you are interested in and love to learn about art, enjoy helping out with successful events, and/or have docent or educational experience, we can really use your help. Volunteers are regularly needed during exhibition openings, lectures, family programs, receptions, and special events, like pop up art shows. We have an experienced team who can match your desire to current needs, help you get oriented, and guide you through each project. Please complete an online application and join us for some fun!
We have a need for volunteers of all types.
If you would like to help us write grant proposals, manage a reception, coordinate a plein aire painting event, help hang art for Art Hop, participate in a committee, we would like to hear from you.
You can even participate on the board, as long as you are a member. We have a nomination process and voting for new board members annually, typically in the Fall.
