Volunteers will have the opportunity to engage with school groups and other guests by staffing the shops in our Streets of Old Grand Rapids exhibit. Volunteers will be able to choose which shop they would like to train in and staff. Options include Voigt Herherpolsheimer Department Store, Rudell Drug Store, Van Dort Print Shop (with a working 1880 printing press), the Firehouse, and our working lathe. Free training is provided. Most volunteers work one shift per week.
