Volunteers are a valuable and integral part of promoting the mission of the Imagine Nation Children's Museum to help create extraordinary learning experiences that enrich the lives of children and families. We offer so many choices to match your interests and all of them help children.

We offer many different choices for volunteers to join our team to help us in work of providing positive experiences for families. Volunteers are comprised of adults, teens, college students, teams from corporations, scouts. The museum is a great place to complete service learning hours for school and church.

Volunteer Opportunities Include: Play Guides-Help children explore the exhibits
Front Desk-greet visitors, assist at the old-fashioned soda fountain. Office Helpers-filing, light typing, copying, etc.
Birthday Party Guides-assist with our popular parties for children. Classes and Workshops-assist with a variety of education programs for children.
Exhibit Maintenance-assisting in the repair and maintenance of museum exhibits.
Special Events-assisting with family events and donor events.

We require our volunteers to be at a minimum of 12 years old. We encourage families to volunteer together. Volunteers must enjoy children and working with people of all ages. Volunteers must like working in a busy, diverse, fun environment with lots of giggles and smiles. Each volunteer is required to complete an application and attend a volunteer training session. References are checked on each volunteer.
