Fabrication & Maintenance Volunteers are part of a collaborative group working to further the Museum’s mission. These volunteers usually work in a "Monday Crew" group, but can also work individually on other days of the week. Projects vary based on skills; current and past projects include Hands-on Demo maintenance and/or fabrication, exhibit building and maintenance, education program development, library cataloging and maintenance, Collections, and Front Desk reception. This group is partially comprised of retired engineers and electronics specialists but welcoming to all and offers a collegial environment where members can be both social and proactive.
