The Vital Role of Volunteers
Volunteering at Cultivate is a direct line to supporting and nurturing the arts scene in Grand Rapids. Our volunteers are the backbone of our organization, ensuring smooth operations during events, exhibitions, and daily activities. By dedicating their time, volunteers help us maintain a welcoming and inclusive space for artists and art enthusiasts alike to gather, share, and connect over contemporary art.
Impact on Local Artists
Cultivate's volunteers provide local artists with the support system they need to showcase their work. From setting up exhibitions to facilitating workshops, each volunteer's contribution helps create opportunities for artists to thrive. These opportunities are not just about display space; they're about offering resources, networking platforms, and public engagement that can propel an artist's career forward.
Community Outreach and Inclusion
Through volunteer-led community outreach programs, Cultivate extends its reach beyond the gallery walls. Volunteers help support art education programs, bringing art to local schools and community centers, and thus broadening the horizons of both young and old. Their efforts ensure that art remains accessible to everyone in the community, regardless of age or background.
Sustaining the Art Ecosystem
Cultivate acknowledges that an arts ecosystem comprises various elements, from the artists and their artwork to the audience and the environment that hosts them. Volunteers are the connectors of these elements, helping to create a robust environment where the arts can flourish. They play a part in every function that allows the arts ecosystem to sustain itself and grow.

Volunteering with Cultivate is more than just giving back; it's about being an integral part of Grand Rapids' cultural identity. It's a call to action for those who value the arts and wish to see them thrive.
