Volunteer with us
Help Make Art Work
We’re always looking for enthusiastic volunteers to lend their time and talents. Don’t worry—no artistic skills necessary!
Volunteers are an integral part of ArtWorks. Guided by our full-time staff, volunteers provide invaluable support to ArtWorks through mural tours, event help, committees, administrative tasks, project cleanup, and more! You don’t have to be an artist. We will work with your time, talents, and interests and find a place for you. As an ArtWorks volunteer, you will gain a network of friends and creatives, experience firsthand the ArtWorks creative process, gain access to ArtWorks events, and so much more. If there is anything we can do to make your experience as a volunteer more fulfilling, we’d love to hear about it.
