Volunteer Your Time

We couldn't do what we do without our volunteers.
They help us operate the gift shop, maintain exhibits, help with events, promote the museum, and so much more!

If you have a special collection you would like to showcase at a monthly event, are interesting in helping at the museum,
or are interested in joining the board of directors, please contact the museum or one of our board members.
