Guidelines for Reporting Volunteer Hours

Thank you for taking the time to record the hours spent doing the great things you do to help the Gallery run smoothly.

​

Please use this as a guide for how to categorize your activity.

​

• Maintenance: includes cleaning, painting, repairing and also includes setting up electronics etc.

• Operations: includes sitting (which you do not have to record) but it also includes things like schedule-making, or purchasing supplies ... anything to keep things running.

• PR/Communications: includes print and posters to web and socials

• Exhibition Management: a fancy word for "hanging" but it also includes things like ordering signage AND work to create online shows.

• Money Management: includes anything to do with transactions or inventory management from tax reports to going to the post-office to mail checks.

• Community Outreach: includes special events like Mermaid Fests or Art Talks as well as party prep and hosting.

• Meetings: sort of obvious! But documentation of a general meeting or creating a meeting agenda would be catalogued here. A meeting about a specific event or issue would be logged as time spent on the event (such as Mermaid Fests).

​

If in doubt, make your best guess and write a comment in the notes section. It's all good.
