Join the Hockaday Guild

Volunteers make the difference at the Hockaday.  By becoming a volunteer, you can learn more about your art museum, help others learn more, and make fundraising events happen!   There are many ways to help at the Hockaday, and becoming a Guild member or a docent are just a couple.  Have your own ideas?  Tell us about them!

The Guild supports the Hockaday Museum of Art by promoting participation in and appreciation of the visual arts.  All Hockaday members are invited to join the Guild to expand their circle of friends, learn about their community, share their ideas and wisdom, and participate in a wide variety of social activities.

2008 proved to be another impressively productive year for the Hockaday Guild, with a long list of receptions, events, activities, and fundraisers to their credit.  Heartfelt thanks go out to all of whom spent hours volunteering their time and concerted effort in making all of these endeavors a success.
