The Kraft Education Center is a very special place where families participate in workshops, demonstrations, gallery walks and drop-in art activities. The Kraft Center hosts the interactive exhibition Telling Images and is home to the Family Room library, where parents and children read books and play games. Volunteering in the Kraft Center will give you an opportunity to see the wonder of art through the eyes of a child. Experiencing the 28 miniature rooms created by Mrs. James Ward Thorne is always a treat for our visitors. The rooms are a favorite of families and school groups, making them bustle with activity.

Substitutes fill in for regular volunteers when they are absent and are required to volunteer at least 7 hours per month, or 4 hours as a weekend substitute. We currently are looking for substitutes for all weekend positions. Volunteers in the Fashion Resource Center, located in the School of the Art Institute, greet students and help them find the resources they are looking for. All positions are available on the weekdays and in the evenin g. Keep in mind that opportunities are not limited to the above positions. Best viewed with Netscape Navigator 4.0 or higher.
