Additional Opportunities
The South Dakota Art Museum has a variety of volunteer opportunities that are both interesting and fulfilling. Some volunteer positions interact with museum visitors while others may work behind the scenes. Whatever the job, everyone performs a service to the museum that cannot be measured in dollars and cents.
Volunteer commitment has allowed the museum to improve visitor experiences by expanding programs, generating community involvement and support and assisting museum staff in daily operations.
For more information on volunteering contact us by email or by phone: 605-688-5423 or 866-805-7590 toll free.
