Volunteer
Devoted, caring volunteers bring the High Desert Museum to life.
Join a volunteer family who shares a passionate interest in the wildlife, culture and history of the High Desert. Volunteers help the Museum in a variety of ways and, in the process, gain a sense of accomplishment and personal satisfaction.
Here’s what some of our volunteers are saying:
- “We’re so proud to be associated with such a high quality attraction.”
- “All of the people you work with are just great!”
- “Sharing the history of the West is meaningful to me.”
- “It’s just plain fun!”
- “You can’t help but learn about new and different things on every visit.”
The Museum has many volunteer opportunities for you! If you are interested in volunteering, please email the Museum’s People and Culture Coach Kristen Campbell at kcampbell@highdesertmuseum.org
The next New Volunteer Orientation is October 10th from 3pm to 5pm, email Kristen at kcampbell@highdesertmuseum.org to be added to the list.
Silver Sage Trading Display Volunteers support store staff and visitor experiences by refilling the existing merchandise displays, replacing items moved by visitors, performing general cleaning tasks, and making note of any items the store is running low on. This opportunity would be a great fit for someone who is detail-oriented and enjoys interacting with visitors. This position requires frequent trips up and down stairs, as well as carrying items around the store. Display volunteers must be flexible and creative – displays in Silver Sage aren’t static! |
*All Teen Volunteer positions are filled for 2024. Please check back in March 2025 for new opportunities*
