Volunteering
Volunteers are an integral part of life at the NEQM and are welcome in every department.

You could assist visitors in the Library, lead a group tour, install an exhibition with the curator, or assist in a variety of administrative roles. Prospective volunteers should be enthusiastic, flexible, and willing to learn new things. Please download the volunteer application and send it to volunteer@nequiltmuseum.org
