As the world leader in volunteerism we feel a responsibility to unite our broader community, and to use this moment to learn from one another, to grow, and to become stronger.
See below to access our COVID-19 Resource Hub, and to explore our growing directory of both COVID-19-specific and virtual volunteering opportunities.
Gallery volunteers are our first contact with visitors, and they offer greetings, answer basic questions, process gift shop sales, and complete small administrative projects. They are welcome to bring books, crafts, etc., to entertain themselves, and refreshments are OK, too. We often times have volunteer teas and tours to inform them about new exhibits, and to socialize together. We are open daily (except Mondays), and we have two shifts that volunteers sign up for: 11:30-2:30 PM, 2:30-5 PM. Often times volunteers chat with visitors, artists, and learn more about the Davis community. We do a short training, and staff are always available to help.
No additional volunteer opportunities at this time.
