Volunteers are the foundation by which the Museum grows and thrives. Museum volunteers play an important and active role in day-to-day operations and in a variety of activities and programs sponsored by the Museum. Volunteers give their time and special skills, and in return, they receive opportunities for continued education and a variety of volunteer benefits.
