KAMLOOPS ARTS COUNCIL
Volunteer
The Kamloops Arts Council relies heavily on its volunteers. From the 50 or more volunteers needed for Art in the Park – one of our annual events which sees more than 40,000 people through Riverside Park on Canada Day – to ongoing volunteers who work behind the scenes stuffing envelopes and making buttons, the KAC couldn’t do without them.
Benefits of Volunteering with KAC
Volunteering with us can be a great way to gain experience, get involved in the arts community, meet people, and learn something new.
As a volunteer you can play a part in helping us to put the arts, in all its forms, at the heart of our community:
- Through our programs, we’ll help even more artists launch their careers
- And through our Crossing Bridges Arts Outreach program, support marginalized and at-risk groups
- Our programs will bring our community together socially helping to build identity and pride
- Making the Kamloops area even more attractive to residents, tourists, business and investors
- And demonstrating the valuable role that the arts plays in building a healthy community.
As a volutneer for Kamloops Arts Council, you really can make a big difference.
