Gallery and Art Academy Associate at the Peninsula Art Academy

Flexible Schedule | Peninsula, OH 44264

The Peninsula Art Academy (PAA) is a popular place for locals and tourists to visit and take classes. Since it is close to the Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad, there is a steady stream of visitors before the train is loaded and when people get off. There are times when the Academy has a real party atmosphere; full of visitors, artists, students and generally interesting people. There are also lulls that allow quiet time for paperwork. A benefit to volunteers who are artists or crafters is the opportunity to display their crafts and make new friends. Our Volunteer Coordinator will train each volunteer. Most of the procedures are documented for easy reference. Volunteers greet visitors and explain the Academy's educational offerings and aid customers in the Gallery.
