Rumriver Art Center depends on volunteers to help in a variety of ways. As a volunteer you are the heart of the art center. We depend on your talents to help us keep the art center running smoothly. We have a variety of opportunities listed below. Click the linked title for more information and to sign up to volunteer.
Art-A-Thon: Help us out with our Art-A-Thon fundraising event. We host a multitude of classes and events over the weekend of April 12th and 13th to bring our community together to create and have fun.
Class Assistant: Aid our teaching artists in the art classroom! Some of our classes with younger students, an abundance of students, or special materials, need extra hands. Volunteers must be at least 14 years old, ready for hands-on creating with kids, and have experience with art materials. Some classes are held at Rumriver Art Center and some are held off-site at parks or schools. Volunteer with us and get a taste of the art education life.
Mindless Tasks: Want to help in your community? Using your brain power all day and ready to tune out? Help Rumriver with repetitive tasks that will put you in a flow state. Duties include sharpening pencils, prepping paper by taping to a background, organizing supplies (color coordinating, tidying up), cleaning tools, and more. Sign up once or make it a weekly habit! Slots include 2-hour shifts on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
Gallery Host: Rumriver has 2 gallery spaces that change each month with new local artwork! Help guide and answer questions from visitors during the opening gallery events. Check out artists and shows coming up and sign up to volunteer. A great chance to meet artists!
