Volunteer With Us


It’s fun to share your time and talents

Valley Art Center relies on the effort and creativity of hundreds of volunteers. Assist a teacher in a classroom, help ready our gallery for a show, or prepare food for an opening reception. There are so many ways to lend a hand. So grab an apron, a hammer or a blender, and have some fun!
Ready to get started? Contact the VAC Volunteer Coordinator at 440-247-7507.

Be part of the excitement.  Volunteer at Art by the Falls!


Want to be an insider in all the Art by the Falls action?

Spend a few hours (or more!) on Friday, Saturday, or Sunday helping VAC staff and crew behind the scenes!  Share in the ABF excitement, and get a FREE t-shirt and raffle ticket! Most of all, have fun while contributing your time, skills and energy.

We have opportunities for booth sitters, attendants at the Welcome, Raffle and Children's Tents, grounds workers and much more! 
Watch for announcements in our newsletter, on Facebook, and at VAC!

What is your gift?

Good with your hands? Good with your head? Good with people?

We have many opportunities, so when you are available to volunteer, chances are we have meaningful ways for you to contribute. Let us know if you'd like to drop in for a day. We always have one-off projects, including mailing, filing, printing/finishing, data entry, or painting. Do you like the idea of being one of our regular volunteers? We have ongoing projects such as database management, archiving, or classroom assistance.
Important volunteer opportunities
  • Gallery—Art registration, exhibition installation, or reception management
  • Events—Administration, activity management, decoration, greeting, ticketing, hospitality, or set up/tear down
  • Workshops—Project prep, sign in/sign out, instruction assistance, classroom management, or set up/tear down
  • Art by the Falls—Too many exciting opportunities to list. We employ 175 volunteers for the festival every year. Something for everyone!
Volunteer your group
Many of our volunteers come as teams from National Honor Society, Girl Scouts, Explorers, Jaycees, Kenston Schools, Chagrin Falls Schools, and others. Your group can participate as well! Earn community service credits, and have fun! Contact Laurie Nalepa, VAC Volunteer Coordinator at 440-247-7507.
