Needs From: Volunteer Center of Kitsap County

Bainbridge Island Museum of Art is seeking episodic Volunteers for possible remote or community outreach off-site or behind-the-scenes on-site curatorial, marketing or education department projects. No experience or art background necessary, adults and teens age 18+ -- we will train you. Good people skills required and fluent computer skills preferred. Episodic volunteers assist with select events or special projects (e.g. curatorial research or data entry, marketing flyer distribution, education department support, or strong, careful lifters for installation crew -- possibly other volunteer opportunities as they arise). Commitment/hours determined by department, per project/goal. You do not need to live on island, reasonable commute from the Kitsap Peninsula and Seattle Ferry.

Although this an on-site volunteer opportunity, you do not have to live on island nor have any arts background. We are looking for curious, sociable folks who love to learn. We will teach you how to share our region's diverse artists and artwork with local and global visitors of all ages. Commitment of two to three shifts each month, 2 to 2 1/2 hours long. Permission to run a background check + ability to follow our volunteer agreement. Connect with us: https://www.biartmuseum.org/volunteer-application/

Help our visitors bring part of their BIMA experience home by volunteering in BIMA’s Museum Store! We’re looking for volunteers who want to share their talents in the store and provide customer service and support in a fun and ever-changing environment. The BIMA Museum Store specializes in extending the visitor experience by offering locally produced and designed products that highlight the art and craft of the Puget Sound Region. Store volunteers will be a core point of contact with all visitors, and must be comfortable with initiating conversation, helping customers to access store merchandise, learning our point-of-sale system, handling money, and maintaining a general knowledge of store vendors and artists. If you have previous retail experience or customer service experience, this may be a great opportunity to assist the store team in extending the mission of BIMA.
