Home Get Involved Volunteer

Gainsborough’s House relies on the contribution of its amazing volunteers who help with learning workshops, administration, Information Point and events. Volunteers may also apply to become tour guides and give talks. Full training is provided. Volunteer meetings are held regularly, so volunteers can get to know each other and staff and learn about the latest developments at the museum.

If you are interested in becoming a volunteer please contact our Volunteer Coordinator, Jacqui Robins on E: jacqui@gainsborough.org

About Gainsborough’s House

Thomas Gainsborough (1727-88) was born in Sudbury and baptised at the Independent Meeting-House in Friars Street on 14 May 1727, the fifth son and ninth child of John and Mary Gainsborough. In 1958, Gainsborough’s House Society was formed to purchase the house and establish it as a centre for Thomas Gainsborough. The Museum opened to the public in 1961 and has remained open for over 50 years. The beautiful historic garden at the heart of Gainsborough’s House is maintained by a devoted body of volunteers, who garden exclusively with plants that were available in Gainsborough’s lifetime.
