Volunteers Needed!

We’re looking for reliable volunteers to join our Exhibitions Committee and help bring our exhibitions to life.

This hands-on role takes place most Thursdays from 4pm onwards and involves helping with exhibition installs and take-downs, including:
• Taking artwork down and putting new work up
• Filling holes, sanding and painting walls
• Drilling and basic DIY tasks
• Climbing ladders and assisting with gallery set-up

We’re especially looking for people who are confident using ladders and can commit to helping with each exhibition changeover.

If you enjoy practical work, being part of a creative community, and helping make our exhibitions happen, we’d love to hear from you!

To find out more or express your interest, please get in touch with the Beach Creative team.
