Volunteers

The Ann Norton Sculpture Gardens offers volunteer opportunities to young teens-senior adults.  Volunteers can become involved in their choice of a range of activities including:  greeting, providing tours, assisting with hands-on youth art activities, event decorating, reading aloud, mailings, historical research and archiving, and marketing/PR.

In 2008 the community provided the Gardens with 3,714 hours of much needed volunteer hours and support.  Our intergenerational volunteer program gives people the opportunity to give back to their community, gain exciting and useful experiences, and enjoy our many programs and events.
