Junior Volunteer Program Returns Summer 2022
Our in-person Junior Volunteer program will return for Summer 2022! As our program returns after a 2 year hiatus, we will only be accepting Junior Volunteers that have been previously accepted into the program. If you were scheduled to serve in 2020 before we cancelled due to the pandemic, make sure to check your email mid-January 2022 for your new application.
Teens ages 14 to 17 serve alongside Museum staff throughout the summer, sharing programs and exhibits with visitors. This is a great opportunity to serve your community while making friends who also love the Museum!
- All Junior Volunteers are trained and supervised. However, all Junior Volunteers must be able to work independently because supervisors cannot be present at all times.
- A variety of positions are available, including
- Discovery Cart attendant
- Discovery Zone assistant
- Exhibit docent
- The JV Program runs on an annual calendar beginning in January when applicants may apply for the upcoming summer.
