Join the board and staff at the
Lancaster Museum of Art
in promoting the arts in our community!



As do many non-profit organizations, the Lancaster Museum of Art relies on the assistance of dedicated and enthusiastic volunteers. These volunteers help to facilitate programs, keep in touch with our membership of nearly 1000 around the county and beyond, and increase the awareness and visibility of the Museum and it�s programs! The Museum is grateful for the volunteers who offer their time and talents to support our programs. Volunteer help is needed in our offices, in the galleries, at special events, openings and fundraisers throughout the year.

Volunteers play a vital role in many facets of operation and events year-round. Their diverse backgrounds, knowledge and expertise in many fields enhance the abilities of the staff, strengthen ties to the community and enable the day-to-day operations and special activities of the Museum to flourish. The Lancaster Museum of Art values the talents and skills of all our Volunteers and recognizes their role in this organization.

If you are interested in becoming a part of
our growing organization, come and volunteer!

We invite you to explore the many volunteer opportunities
(we're open to suggestions too) and become part of the Museum family.
