"We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing."  - George Bernard Shaw




PLAY AMBASSADOR PROGRAM (11-13 years old)

Become a Play Ambassador at The Museum of Discovery! Lead younger kids on museum adventures, show them cool exhibits, and spark their creativity! This program is perfect for ages 11-13. Parents are expected to stay onsite, but you'll be the star of the show! Participating in our Play Ambassador program is a great way for kids to develop social and emotional skills while helping their community.

YOUTH VOLUNTEER (14-18 years old)
Want to make a difference and earn community service hours? Join our Youth Volunteer program! You'll be the science, math, or art whiz, setting up fun stations and helping younger visitors explore the museum in exciting new ways. We offer flexible scheduling and personalized feedback to help you grow your skills. Plus, you can track your volunteer hours and get a reference letter!

ADULT VOLUNTEERS

Do you love art? Build things? Have a knack for organization? We can use your skills! We have opportunities for weekly art programming, event support, exhibit building, and even joining our Board of Directors. Tell us what you love to do, and we'll find a perfect fit for you. We're flexible and happy to work around your schedule.
