Each summer, the Go van Gogh program visits libraries across the city of Dallas—bringing free, hour-long arts programs to children ages 5-12 and their families. Our Go van Gogh volunteers lead these programs, helping children to explore, talk about, and make works of art at the libraries.
This year we are excited to be recruiting a new corps of volunteers, Go van Gogh summer outreach volunteers, to help us bring these summer art experiences to the community. If you love working with children, have a passion for art, and want to give back to the community–we need YOU!
