OPPORTUNITIES TO GET INVOLVED
G.WIZ volunteers work with visitors and participate behind the scenes in order to create an enhanced program for our guests. Volunteers explain exhibits, help staff special events, answer visitors’ questions, assist with clerical tasks, help out in our Museum Store, provide simple interactive tabletop demonstrations, and much more! By contributing your time and talent, you can learn something new, teach someone else, and most of all, have fun! The success of our programs depends on the efforts of enthusiastic volunteers such as yourself.
