Volunteers: The museum has benefited from over 6,000 volunteer-hours since 2022! Thank you for your ongoing support
Volunteer Opportunities: One of the museum's primary needs is to have a two-person volunteer team to manage the greeting and gift shop at all times that we are open to the public. This allows the museum staff and specialized support volunteers may offer as many or as few hours of their time as they wish. Every volunteer is important and appreciated.
