Donate your time to
Scenic City Clay Arts.

Our SCCA Volunteers are a team of people committed to the studio who volunteer their time to support the day-to-day work of Scenic City Clay Arts studio and programs.

    Class and Event Volunteers

    These volunteer opportunities are perfect for anyone who wants to jump in, help out, and make an impact!

    Examples of SCCA’s most common volunteer opportunities include:

    • Assisting SCCA instructors during classes or outreach programs with youth and community partners

    • Supporting off-site clay workshops throughout Chattanooga

    • Helping staff during community events and SCCA programs

    • Supporting general studio projects, setup, and organization

    The support of our volunteers keeps our classes, events, and outreach programs flowing smoothly! Whether you can help for one shift or several, we’d love to have you involved!

    Studio Volunteers

    Looking to make a regular impact at SCCA? Our Studio Volunteers commit to a consistent schedule (biweekly or more) and play a vital role in keeping our studio and programs running smoothly. Whether assisting in the studio with tasks like loading kilns and recycling clay, or even mopping up after classes, Studio Volunteers are a trusted part of our team.  Volunteers commit to a set number of hours per month and gain valuable hands-on experience with behind-the-scenes studio processes like kiln operation, glaze mixing, and studio upkeep. This is a great opportunity for those who want to deepen their connection to the studio and gain hands-on experience in a creative environment.

    Studio Volunteers Opportunities are available on an application basis and applications for Studio Volunteers are currently closed. Want to get involved? Consider volunteering at one our Classes or Events!
