Volunteer, Inspire, and Belong at NorthStar
Volunteers are the backbone of NorthStar Watermedia Society
Your time, energy, and skills help us bring exhibitions, workshops, and community events to life. As a nonprofit, we rely on dedicated volunteers to support our mission, keep programs accessible, and nurture a vibrant, creative community. Whether you’re greeting guests, helping with events, or sharing tech or marketing skills, every contribution makes a real impact.
Volunteering benefits you, too
When you volunteer with NorthStar, you become part of a warm, creative community. You’ll make meaningful connections with fellow artists and art lovers, gain hands-on experience in the arts world, and even develop leadership and organizational skills. Whether you’re looking to grow your network, build your resume, or simply give back doing something you love, volunteering is a rewarding way to be part of something bigger.”
