Volunteer with Us

The Lightbox has a fantastic team of volunteers who give up their time to help us. They fulfil a wide range of roles including greeting our visitors, supervising exhibitions, organising The Heritage Collection, leading tours and lending a hand at special events.

Some volunteers come in once a week, but others just help out whenever they can. Volunteers play a vital role at The Lightbox and are fundamental to our success and sustainability.

  • Work Experience

I applied to volunteer at The Lightbox in Summer. The building both externally and internally is truly inspirational, providing a fantastic array of artwork. I believe I can make a real contribution to the work the gallery does for the community and the art world. Having met some of the team, I instantly felt right at home and thoroughly enjoyed my guided tour around the gallery. Here’s to you Lightbox team! See you this Summer.

What a wonderful surprise to see such a spread when I arrived at the Volunteer Tea Party!! I was expecting a slice of cake and a cuppa, but you’d really pushed the boat out! Thank you it was such a lovely tea party and good to catch up with other Volunteers.

The Lightbox is always breaking new ground and moving forward. There are so many offshoots going out from the building, like the dementia initiative, the drawing workshops, the young curators, the children’s workshops, the Friends of The Lightbox and the links with Woking College and WWF.
