Volunteer Opportunities

Join the AGO in bringing art and people together.

AGO Gallery Guide leading a tour

Welcome to volunteering with the Art Gallery of Ontario! Volunteers help the AGO bring art and people together by generously giving their passion, energy and expertise.

Volunteers play a crucial role in the transformed AGO, connecting hundreds of thousands of visitors to one of the most diverse and unique collections in North America.

Although placements may not always be available in the area for which you express an interest, applications are always accepted. Once your application has been submitted, applicants with the required skills, interests, and availability will be contacted for an interview as volunteer placements become available. Interested candidates should possess an appreciation of art, willingness to learn new things, a basic understanding of computers — including the internet — and an interest in bringing people and art together.

For more information please contact the Volunteer Recruitment Office by telephone at 416 979 6660 x 496 or by email at volunteer_recruiters@ago.net.
