We seek vibrant individuals passionate about arts, childhood development, and community engagement. No art experience required-just bring your enthusiasm! Apply now to contribute to behind-the-scenes activities and make a difference in our transformative community journey!All applicants who submit a completed application will be contacted to schedule an interview followed by a group training session. Additional background checks may be required based on placement. Any accepted volunteer may voluntarily leave, and/or may be dismissed by Free Arts NYC at any time for any reason.
