We rely heavily on the dedication of our volunteers to ensure that our professional mentors can focus their energy on instruction, providing essential support roles across the organization that keep our creative ecosystem running smoothly and efficiently. We have flexible and fulfilling opportunities ranging from directly supporting our students as studio assistants—helping with material setup, clean-up, and general class organization—to assisting with administrative tasks, helping staff community events like our annual showcases, or lending expertise in areas such as grant writing, social media management, or photography. We provide comprehensive training and a warm, supportive atmosphere for all volunteers, ensuring they feel equipped and valued as true partners in our mission, making this a wonderful way to connect with like-minded, passionate community members.
