Adventure into the Arts: Volunteer Today!
Thank you for your interest in serving as a MartinArts Volunteer. Volunteers are an integral part of the success of MartinArts operations and programming. Over 250+ volunteers each year contribute their time and talents in a variety of ways within the areas of guest relations, education, membership, events, outreach, and more. Our volunteers are a major force in fulfilling our mission to inspire participation and passion for the arts in our community.
MartinArts seeks volunteers from all backgrounds throughout the year as projects arise. We welcome students who require service hours for school and community members interested in sharing their love of art with others. A background in art is not required for many volunteer opportunities.
