Volunteer Opportunities
Exciting events are coming up and we would love to get you involved at the Richmond Art Gallery as a volunteer. Volunteering is a fun way to learn about art and the Gallery, meet new people and contribute to your community. Without volunteers like you, the Richmond Art Gallery would not be able to do what it does - you help make it all work!

Why Volunteer
Volunteering has much to offer:

• Make a difference in the lives of others
• Apply your skills and talents
• Come to know your community better, while contributing to its future
• Engage with others, while sharing your love for art and culture
