Join ARTZ Philly in facilitating arts-based programs open to people with dementia and those that love them! ARTZ Philadelphia's museum programs aim to make participants feel welcome and valued from door to door. Volunteers greet attendees, distribute name tags, assist when the group shifts positions within the gallery, and echo responses from participants during the program. Seeking committed volunteers for our monthly program at the Brandywine River Museum of Art.

Please note: this program is held in the morning on every 4th Tuesday of the month!

Please see ARTZ Philadelphia's other listings for other locations and types of volunteer opportunities.

ARTZ Philly's volunteer program requires volunteers to complete a two-part training with us, and includes a subsequent 6 month volunteering commitment (we ask that you attend at least one program/month).
