Arts and culture
The arts and culture sector is a popular choice for volunteers and opportunities range from working at festivals to volunteering at your library or helping a local arts organisation. Volunteers in the arts often gain a new perspective on their chosen field, and in the case of festivals and events, can get into things for free!
Opportunities include:
- Local library
Help deliver books to housebound people and take part in events, surveys, reading groups and local history activities. - Drama, literature and theatre groups
Behind the scenes volunteering underpins the work of many. Why not share your love of the arts and volunteer for one? - Museums, galleries and art
From mounting an exhibition to helping people express themselves through painting there are a range of opportunities. - Music festivals
Literally hundreds of festivals take place every summer, and they all rely on an army of volunteers.
