Any individual who is passionate about education, the environment, museums, community events, crafts, and FUN should feel encouraged to volunteer. We welcome and appreciate people of all ages, backgrounds, and abilities!

This is a great opportunity for anyone looking to develop event skills and help our community become more connected with the museum and its exciting resources. Snacks will be available for all volunteers. A dinner break (and food) will be provided for volunteers who work the entire 5-hour shift.
Volunteering in this role may lead to future opportunities working in the museum s collections, education, and community engagement departments!
