The Saint Joseph Museums need you! Please consider enriching the community as a museum volunteer. Volunteers assist us with a multitude of museum activities, including: admissions, education programs, data entry, gardening, photo scanning, committee work, tours, and special events.

The entire community benefits from your service. With a staff of just 7 people and 2 sites, we can use all the help we can get!

The St. Joseph Museums welcomes volunteers ages 15 and over.  Whether you are looking for a college internship or something to do during your retirement, we have the right opportunity for you!
