Information Sessions

Interested in volunteering with the Muscarelle?
Sign up for a one-hour volunteer orientation session beginning February 24.

Applicants need not have a background in art history. Successful candidates will have the time and energy to meet the expectations of our volunteer program, a passion for sharing art with diverse audiences, and a desire for engaging with visitors.

All volunteers will be expected to:

  • Attend a training session
  • Abide by museum safety and security protocols
  • Make minimum commitments of time throughout the year
  • Be reliable – arrive on time for your shifts

Volunteer benefits include:

  • Invitations and early access to exclusive volunteer behind-the-scenes programs at the Muscarelle Museum of Art.
  • Accumulate volunteer service hours for special incentives and perks through the Muscarelle Volunteer Loyalty Program.
  • Networking and engagement opportunities with like-minded people of all ages!
  • Behind-the-scenes access to fine art exhibitions.
  • And so much more!
