You have the opportunity to get directly involved in the visual, literary or performing arts programs sponsored by the Arts Center. You may focus on specific areas, such as publicity, program development, or fundraising, assist with general office assistance serving members, or special events such as the annual Heart of the Arts Festival. You may make your own hours. Volunteers proficient in FileMaker Pro are particularly helpful!
