Becoming a Volunteer
Interested in volunteering at the museum? Please come in and introduce yourself! Let us know you’re thinking about getting involved. We welcome you to spend some time around the museum taking in the atmosphere, seeing what our various volunteers are doing, and thinking about skills you might contribute.
Members of our community help out at events, help with clerical work, help document incoming archival materials, perform repairs and maintenance indoors and outdoors, and staff the museum itself.
As one of our volunteers wrote:
“Every time I have come in to volunteer at the museum—even if I wasn’t so sure I felt like it that day—I have come away feeling so thankful and glad that I did come in. Every time, without fail, I end up feeling happy, enriched and rewarded by my museum day: the people I met, the new things I saw and learned, the ideas I heard and shared. Every time, I leave with a deeper connection with our community and a more positive outlook.”
