Here’s what some of our volunteer have to say about volunteering at WVAC:

We need more cultural activities in the West Valley and, whatever the role, I can feel a part of bringing that exposure to the community.

George Kyle, Volunteer since 2006

The most important reason to volunteer is to be with people who appreciate you. Having fun is the perk.

Merrill Nan, Volunteer since 2009

It gives me purpose. I also love the beautiful diversity of our community here in Surprise and the West Valley. Having been shut away for so many months, I feel alive again when I greet fellow art lovers.
