Opportunities at Intuit

 

Volunteer

Join a community of outsider and self-taught art enthusiasts who enjoy creating a welcoming space for others to explore and learn about the genre.

Volunteers are an integral part of the Intuit experience. From greeting guests to engaging in conversations about Intuit exhibitions, programs and membership, volunteers create opportunities that connect people to the museum and the genre. As an Intuit volunteer, you will gain hands-on experience in museums and learn about exhibitions and programs from Intuit staff.

Intuit volunteers:

  • Support the Guest Services team
  • Contribute to an inviting museum environment by welcoming guests
  • Assist in the daily operations of the Intuit Store
  • Learn about the museum’s collections and exhibitions through staff-led training

Volunteer commitments are in 4-hour blocks on Thursday, Friday, Saturday and or Sunday. Ready to get Intuit? Complete the volunteer application and indicate your availability; an Intuit staff member will get in touch with you as soon as possible.
