We count on the arts and cultural institutions in our community to
broaden our perspective and beautify our world. But they can’t do it
alone. They need volunteers to help provide many of the experiences
and educational opportunities they offer. Below are listings of several
current and upcoming volunteer opportunities in the arts:
Arvada Center for the Arts and Humanities
Volunteers at the Arvada Center enjoy a wide variety of opportunities to share their time and talents. Volunteers are needed to serve in a variety of capacities – as ushers for performances and docents for gallery exhibitions and the history museum; to staff the Center Shop and work special events; to help with the accessibility and Arts Day programs; to serve as Backstage Moms/Dads, and much more.
