We have hundreds of volunteers who donate thousands of hours to the MacKenzie annually. Join this wonderful group of community-spirited people and volunteer today!
The objectives of the MacKenzie Gallery Volunteers are:
• To provide opportunities and programs that are consistent with the mission and objectives of the MacKenzie Art Gallery.
• To operate a school/travelling art program to introduce and broaden the visual arts experience of children in elementary schools by presenting them with quality reproductions of works by master painters.
• To provide opportunities for volunteers to take advantage of an enrichment program which focuses on the history, appreciation and enjoyment of art.
• To work in cooperation and consultation with the Gallery Director and Staff.
