Volunteer opportunities

The Museum’s volunteers are a vital part of the team; they help to keep the Milwaukee Art Museum running smoothly throughout the year. Milwaukee Art Museum volunteers greet Museum visitors at entrances, offer navigational assistance in the Museum, distribute audio guides and general information, and assist with Museum Store customer service. After a brief introduction/training session, volunteers are asked to attend quarterly training classes and work a minimum of 6 hours a month from Monday through Sunday. Museum membership is required to apply for a volunteer position. For more information on Museum volunteer opportunities, please contact Caitlin Martell at 414.224.3282 or caitlin.martell@mam.org.

Our highly trained docents are specialists in tours, and provide an in-depth look at the Museum’s Collection. Docents give guided tours to school and adult groups. A yearlong training session begins in the fall; training sessions are held on Mondays. Docents are expected to give tours one day a week during the school year. For more information, please contact Barbara Brown Lee at 414-224-3820 or barbara.brownlee@mam.org.
