Get Involved

Art Project Roanoke runs on community and right now, we're looking for people who want to be part of building it. Not just watching from the sidelines. Actually in it. We need help with art programs, outreach, marketing, fundraising, operations, and more. No art degree, no nonprofit résumé required. Just show up with some enthusiasm and we'll figure out the rest together.

We need hands, hearts, and people who believe in the power of the arts in Roanoke.

Here’s the bigger picture:

Arts and culture aren't just feel-good extras for a city — they're what makes a city worth living in. They bring people together, drive economic activity, and build the kind of identity that makes Roanoke Roanoke. APR is working to build that engine here, and we need people who want to be part of making it real.
