The Elfreth's Alley Museum is looking for volunteers to help us tell the stories of the people who have lived on this historic street over three centuries. We engage with visitors through conversation and guided tours, through events and exhibits, and we need your help!
Us:
- love history, storytelling, and architecture
- want to share our enthusiasm with other people
- seek to continue the legacy of those who preserved the street a century ago
You:
- friendly!
- want to hone your storytelling chops?
- want to get involved in museums and see how they work?
- seek to practice a language other than English?
- have a little time available to volunteer on Fridays, Saturdays, or Sundays (we are open 12-5pm with extended hours on First Fridays)
For more information, email director@elfrethsalley.org!
