Want to volunteer?

The Carver Museum and Cultural Center is recruiting volunteers who wish to help curate and share our history and advance our mission. Volunteers share a similar pride and passion about the museum and cultural center. They carry our mission and promote Carver by sharing information about programs, events and exhibits, and recruiting new members and volunteers. Like the staff, they are dedicated to Carver and spread the news of this unique and historic organization.

One of the pleasures of volunteering at Carver is the day-to-day contact with a dedicated staff. Teamwork is of the utmost importance and is a fundamental component of our organization. Your ideas and the energy and enthusiasm that you bring will directly and immediately affect the lives of others at Carver and in the community. Those with previous museum and cultural center volunteer experience, education backgrounds, and administrative assistance are especially encouraged to volunteer. We hope that you will apply.
