    VOLUNTEER ACTIVITIES: The City Park Stewards program in the City of North Vancouver brings together community partners and citizens to restore and enhance a natural space that supports habitat for native plants and animals.

    TRAINING AVAILABLE: Yes, available at each volunteer activity.
    REQUIREMENTS: Everyone is welcome and no experience is necessary. The City will supply all the training, tools, and refreshments. All events go ahead rain or shine, so please come dressed for the weather, with sturdy shoes, and in clothing you don't mind getting a bit dirty. Arrive in style. Please consider walking, cycling, taking public transit, or carpooling with friends to the event. Location changes each month. To RSVP and to learn more about this program, contact parkstewards@cnv.org.

    VOLUNTEER TITLE: Gallery Attendant
    VOLUNTEER ACTIVITIES: The WVCAC has openings for Gallery Attendants, who are friendly and welcoming hosts to visitors to our seaside gallery space at the Silk Purse.
    Gallery Attendants provide information about current gallery exhibits, process sales from our gallery shop, the Art Box, sell memberships, and tickets to our concerts, and are fonts of information and enthusiasm for the variety of programming offered by the WVCAC. Volunteers work independently, on 2-hour shifts.
    REQUIREMENTS: We’d encourage applications from students with an interest in the arts, especially visual arts, who would feel confident working on their own, engaging with the public, and handling sales transactions. Previous experience in customer service or a position of responsibility would be an asset.
    HOURS INVOLVED: We encourage applications from youth at the senior high school level for weekend shifts. COVID: Our opening hours during COVID are reduced, so volunteer needs are somewhat reduced, but would certainly welcome applications from youth in anticipation of reopening to full capacity.
