Join the Summer Science activities on the Visitor Center second floor! Help Hagley guides help facilitate the activities. The activities will vary throughout the season.
You'll enjoy working with our visitors and seeing them learn basic science concepts in a practical hands-on way.
Enjoy working with people of all ages? This is for you. NOTE: If you are under 15 a parent needs to volunteer at the same time with you.
We would like volunteers to come on a fairly consistent basis (once a week for example) during the summer, and will accommodate vacations and plans. If you have questions about the schedule, contact Angela awilliamson@hagley.org or 302-658-2400 ext. 257. Training will be given.

Mission Statement
Hagley Museum and Library collects, preserves, and interprets the unfolding history of American enterprise. Hagley is located on 235 acres by the Brandywine River in Wilmington, Delaware.
Description
Located on 235 acres along the banks of the Brandywine River in Wilmington, Delaware, Hagley is the site of the gunpowder works founded by E. I. du Pont in 1802. This example of early American industry includes restored mills, a workers' community, and the ancestral home and gardens of the du Pont family.
Hagley's library furthers the study of business and technology in America, especially the Middle Atlantic region. The collections include individuals' papers and companies' records ranging from eighteenth-century merchants to modern telecommunications and illustrate the impact of the business system on society.
The Center for the History of Business, Technology, and Society organizes and administers the Hagley Museum and Library's interaction with the world of scholarship. It brings attention to Hagley's research collections and generates intellectual dialogue at Hagley.
