Volunteer

One of the museum's guiding principles is that audiences are central to the Albany Institute experience. As we work to connect diverse audiences to the art, history, and culture of the Upper Hudson Valley, volunteers are essential partners in that mission.

Contribute to the Albany Institute's mission by assisting the Development Department's operations:

  • Solicitation mailings
  • Donation processing
  • Generating membership renewals and acknowledgements
  • Maintaining paper files, including corporate and business files, in-kind-contribution files, special project files, government grants files, and foundation files
  • Maintaining individual files and general office files
  • Coordinating materials to supplement grants and foundation, corporate, and individual proposals and applications
  • Representing the Development Department at special events, openings, corporate events, membership-cultivation activities, luncheons, etc.

We encourage people from all backgrounds and life experiences to apply to our volunteer programs. No experience is required, and training is offered for all programs.
