Volunteer Opportunities

We love volunteers!! If you love interacting with children and families, and can make a commitment, the Museum has possibilities in the following areas:

• Paper Making 
  Teach visitors to make paper, share its significance in Holyoke’s history, and help run one of our most popular hands on exhibits.
• Museum Guide
  Guide visitors in interacting with exhibits, highlight important educational topics.
• Birthday Party Buddy
  Help set up for parties, and attend to guests needs.
• Arts and Crafts
  Volunteers are always needed to help with a daily craft project. We provide all the supplies but welcome new ideas.

You might have a talent you’d like to share that is not on this list, so please give us a call. For more information, please contact the office of the Executive Director at: 413-536-7048.

*Volunteers are very special to us. In order to properly train individuals and guarantee a wonderful experience we require that you commit to at least 6 months time or 100 hours. Summer volunteers must work at least one full day per week.
