We need some friendly faces to greet our Museum guests. You'll greet incoming visitors and explain the Museum. Besides that, you'll be showing our guests all the great items we have for sale in our Gift Shop and completing their purchases.
If you have the inclination, we'll also give you opportunities to learn how a Museum handles artifacts, you can become a docent, and you'll be the first to know when additional FUN volunteer opportunities arise!
When you're not greeting, we'll ask you to help tidy up the gift shop and restock items, etc.
Volunteers will receive a custom VOLUNTEER t-shirt, and after 20 hours of volunteering, we'll reward you with a FREE museum membership, which has all kinds of benefits!
