If you care about art and want to see art thrive in Sonoma, CA, the Sonoma Valley Art Museum is a great way to put your volunteer efforts and time to good use! This sophisticated and accessible museum averages four special exhibits a year, with many exhibits focused on California and West Coast artists of broad renown. As a volunteer you can work the front desk, greeting visitors and sharing a few words about the current exhibit. You can also train to be a Museum Guide and conduct tours. And there's always a need for hands-on support of special events. I've had a lot of fun volunteering at the Sonoma Valley Museum of Art, and been privileged to meet some of the artists and learn about their work and contributions to Sonoma's lively art scene. And the staff are museum professionals--all a pleasure to work with. Give the Sonoma Valley Museum of Art a try!
