Museum Guide: Interact with visitors. Spark curiosity, explain exhibits, answer questions, assist with daily cleaning and project preparation. We ask for a two hours per week average commitment. Must love children! If you have kids of your own, you are welcome to bring them in while you volunteer.

Birthday Host: Help children celebrate their birthdays at the Museum. Set-up and decorate party room, greet and orient party guests, facilitate positive play and interactions, lead theme-based activities, clean up after party. Birthday hosts would work as needed. Birthday parties are generally during our regular hours of operation.

Helping Hand: Help maintain our exhibits: mend costumes, touch-up paint, tighten screws, replace parts, etc. This work would mostly be done after hours. Some work would be done onsite and some could be done at home.

Special Events: Want to get involved but can’t commit to a regular time? Ask for a special events opportunity list.

Committees: If you have experience in fundraising, development or exhibit design inquire about openings on our committees.
