Community Engagement committee
The Community Engagement Committee is who looks after volunteers, members, and off-site events to raise awareness of Quest Art’s programming and events.
We are looking for volunteers to help in these ways:
- Calling members whose membership is about to expire or has expired.
- Calling volunteers to verify and ensure up-to-date information.

- Help organise volunteer appreciation events on-site and off.
Time needed is roughly 1-2 hours per week and varies by season.

- Teens
- Tween
- Families
- School outreach (visiting schools)
- School trips to Quest Art
Volunteer duties can vary depending on the age range, but could involve calling instructors, following up with previous instructors to verify information, assisting in classes as a teaching aide.
Time needed is roughly 1-2 hours per week and will vary by season.
Angel Gate Bingo
As a registered organisation with Angel Gate Bingo, we are able to receive funding through Delta Bingo’s charity gaming programme.
For each assignment of 2 hours, Quest Art needs to provide two volunteers to support staff at Delta Bingo and welcome guests.
This is a vital source of funding for Quest Art and as we don’t schedule our assignments, it’s important to have a reliable group of volunteers to call on when we are needed at Delta Bingo.
If you can volunteer just two hours a month, please get in touch at getinvolved@questart.ca
Every volunteer will need to do an online training of 45 minutes and shadow an experienced volunteer before they’re able to start. So, don’t worry – training is provided!
Summer Camp: Instructors
Quest Art is looking for volunteers to support instructors in class at Quest Art.
We need volunteers for 2-4 hours each day for the following camps:
- July 3rd to July 7th (Mon-Fri)
- July 10th to July 14th (Mon-Fri)
- July 24th to July 28th (Mon-Fri)
- More to be confirmed!
Volunteers will mainly help with supporting students with their art activities, supervising them during lunch (if applicable), and supporting the instructor with distributing materials.
Students
Students can get involved with Quest Art and discover fun and engaging ways to explore art, get community volunteer hours, meet other creative people or even complete your co-op credit! We would love to have your insight and energy here at Quest! Please contact getinvolved@questart.ca.
