Exhibits Assistant volunteers are a hugely important factor in creating and maintaining the 10 permanent exhibits on display at NHMU. With training in exhibit fabrication and assembly, they assist our exhibits staff in making sure our galleries are in top shape, helping to create for guests lasting impressions of both natural history and current scientific research.
Exhibits Assistants help with the fabrication, production, and assembly of exhibit components for upcoming exhibits, or for permanent exhibitions. Volunteers may have an opportunity to contribute to the development of components.
Training Required:

Shift times: Flexible, typically during the work week.
Time Commitment: One 1.5-hour shift per week.
