GALLERY ASSISTANT
With several different exhibition spaces, gallery assistants play an invaluable role in introducing visitors to our art exhibitions and assisting with installation and de-installation of exhibitions. This role provides volunteers with the opportunity to learn about each of our exhibitions, meet the artist/s and creatives, and to share their love of art with visitors to Montsalvat.
FRONT OF HOUSE ASSISTANT
An integral role in Montsalvat’s fundraising and performance events, front of house assistants are responsible for greeting, welcoming and checking in event attendees as well as assisting with event set ups such as audience seating and table preparations. Often this role will enable a volunteer to enjoy music and meet renowned speakers and musicians.
GARDENING
Montsalvat sits on 12 acres of land and our magnificent grounds have been greatly enhanced by the work of our gardening volunteers working closely with Montsalvat’s Head Gardener. Some adopt a garden bed, while others take on general gardening tasks such as clipping edges, weeding, mulching and tending the cuttings in our glasshouse. Wednesday - Friday only.
