Enthusiastic and responsible volunteers are a vital component in the day-to-day operations at the Museum
of Contemporary Art Detroit. Volunteering at MOCAD is a great way to get involved with the community, be
part of a fun team, and interact with museum visitors, employees, and special guests in a variety of ways.
MOCAD strives to provide our volunteers with an interesting and rewarding learning experience.

Volunteers should be available to commit to working a weekly shift of between 4 and 6 hours, and are always welcome to work more. Alternatives to committing to a weekly shift are available for those whose schedule may not allow it.

MOCAD volunteers greet and welcome visitors at the Museum entrance, provide exhibition materials, answer questions, provide information and directions, and count visitors upon their entrance to the museum. Volunteers are also responsible for answering the telephone and facilitate callers' questions. They
also assist staff with programs, special events, exhibition maintenance, and occasional administrative tasks.

If you are interested in becoming a volunteer at MOCAD, please download the volunteer application, complete it, and return it to:
