The Information Desk Volunteers at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum serve an important function in the museum. For the more than 185,000 visitors who come to the museum each year, our volunteers are an integral part of their experience.
Information Desk Volunteers are trained to greet and welcome visitors, answer questions about the museum and its programs and assist visitors in the galleries. Once trained in these areas, additional opportunities for giving introductory talks and working with visitors in the galleries are available.
We are looking for personable, outgoing people with excellent communication skills and an ability and desire to work with diverse audiences. You do not need to have an art background as we will provide training.
Whether you are a college student or a retiree, if you are enthusiastic about sharing the Gardner Museum with visitors from all over the world please consider becoming a volunteer today!
Shifts are 11:00 am to 2:00 pm and 2:00 pm to 5:00 pm, Tuesday through Sunday and some Monday holidays. A minimum of two shifts per month is required as is a two year commitment to the program.
Training for new volunteers occurs as needed and no more than two times a year. To be notified about the next training cycle please complete our online Volunteer Questionnaire.
