Join Our Creative Community as a Gallery Assistant!

At the Upstairs Gallery, there’s always something new and inspiring happening. With monthly-changing exhibitions, we’re a vibrant hub for locals and tourists alike. Volunteering with us means being part of a welcoming space where art meets community. You'll meet people from all walks of life, and as you arrive each morning, you’ll hear the village’s heartbeat—coffee beans grinding and cutlery clinking, with the best cafes just a stone’s throw away.

What You'll Do:

• Manage the gallery solo during weekends, or join us on weekdays for flexible 3-hour shifts that fit your schedule

• Open or close the gallery, welcome visitors and provide them with exhibition information

• Keep our welcoming atmosphere alive by sharing stories and engaging with visitors, creating an inviting space where everyone feels welcome

Why Volunteer with Us?

• Free Gallery Membership: Receive a complimentary annual membership after just 5 shifts, including a 10% discount on purchases from our gift shop.

• Beautiful Workspace: Enjoy working from a stunning location surrounded by art and the natural beauty of Titirangi’s bush.

• Flexible Shifts: Volunteer as often or as little as you like.

• Exclusive Access: Be the first to experience new art at exhibition openings.

• Showcase Your Own Work: If you’re a creator, you’ll have the opportunity to sell your art in our curated shop and participate in member exhibitions.

No Experience Needed!
We welcome volunteers from all backgrounds and experience levels. We’ll show you everything you need to know about the gallery, including any sales processes. Plus, we offer verbal references or certificates of service to support your future endeavours.

Join us and be part of the creative heart of Titirangi! Whether you’re looking to meet new people, share your passion for art, or simply enjoy the inspiring atmosphere, we’d love to have you on our team.
