Baking & Cooking Volunteers!
Share your love of baking or cooking by making treats for Film Festival, meals for Youth Art Enrichment and other events! We’re always looking for folks to help prepare, cook, and serve a variety of meals and food.
Documentation Volunteers! 📸
Build your social and digital media skills by snapping pics and videos at events!
Writers!
Whether it’s an exhibition review, a community interview, or an article for the paper, we welcome those who have a passion for creative writing.
Building Volunteers!
Do you have a special skill you’d like to share with us to improve the Dënäkär Zho building and our spaces?
Transportation Volunteers!
Do you like to zip around and get things done? We often need things picked up in Whitehorse, tables/chairs dropped off for special events, or artists who may need a ride to the airport. Driving is a great way to help out!
Welcoming Crew
Do you love meeting people, and showing off our amazing community? This is a committee made of up a roster of folks who can be part of a ‘buddy crew (2-3 people)’ for visiting artists when they arrive. We’ll reach out the committee members prior to the artist’s arrival, and will have folks step forward as they have the capacity.
