Volunteering is an important way of gaining professional experience and making your self more marketable.
The Children's Museum offers a variety of different ways to volunteer.
How to become a volunteer:
Once you decide to volunteer with the museum you must fill out a volunteer application. After you complete your application, please allow the museum at least one week to process it. A representative from The Children's Museum will then call you to discuss the specifics of your volunteer position.
The Group Volunteers
The Children's Museum has several major fundraisers throughout the year including: Fall Fest, Santa's Elves Workshop, Daddy Daughter Dance, Mom & Son Events, summer camps, spring break camp, and various monthly programs. These events require many volunteers, which makes this a great opportunity for large groups to work together.
Program Volunteers
Every week there are children's programs going on at the Museum. Program Volunteers can either help the museum staff with the programs or come up with their own activity and present it to the children. This is a great opportunity to be the teacher and the program planner.
Individual Volunteers
The individual volunteer can be any one, from a one-time volunteer to having a set times during the week to volunteer. This is great for anyone who has a busy schedule. These volunteers help out with the daily story times, arts and crafts, preparation for events and programs as well as giving a helping hand to daily operations.
