Volunteers

Thanks to all of our amazing and dedicated volunteers!

Volunteers have been part of the Center’s story since opening day.  They are the real magic-makers behind what we do. From helping patrons to engaging folks in gallery discussions, their commitment to the Center is the reason for our success.  We appreciate our volunteers and their passion for the Center, the arts, and our community.
