If you’re 16 or older and enjoy science, these opportunities are for you:
Floor
Experience the day-to-day of the museum! Assist guests, answer questions, and clean exhibit areas. Exhibit areas and activities need to be “reset” throughout the day, and thoroughly picked up at the end of each shift. Floor volunteers can commit to morning (10am-2pm) or afternoon (1pm-5pm) shifts, or all day (with a 30 minute lunch break).
Camps
Special Events
Science Cart
Science cart volunteers spend 1-2 hours overseeing mobile lab carts on the museum floor, interacting with guests and providing them a fun, safe educational experience. We provide the training, materials and groovy lab coat! (Science cart volunteers must be 18+ years of age.) View the Flyer!
