Committees
Volunteer Guild members are invited to join a committee.  This is a great way to get involved in a project that reflects your interests!  In a committee, you can meet new people, learn new skills, and give back to the museum and the community.
  • Day Trips – Plans and hosts day trips to Houston area galleries, museums, and other art-related venues.
  • Hospitality – Provides refreshments and decorations for Guild events.
  • Membership – Recruits and welcomes new Guild members, and manages check-in tables at meetings & events.
  • Student Art Contest – Plans all aspects of the annual juried art competition for area students from 1st to 12th grade. 
  • Museum Store – Assists customers during special events, and works with museum staff to arrange and maintain store shelf displays.
