Lockwood-Mathews Mansion Volunteer Orientation

Volunteer Coordinator Robin Lynch will lead engaging sessions on the vital ways volunteers can contribute to the preservation of this National Historic Landmark and strengthen its community.

Whether prospective volunteers are interested in archival materials, community outreach, administration, or working in the gift shop, this discussion will highlight how their unique skills can make a lasting impact. The event will include an informational tour and light refreshments provided by the museum’s management team. A background in history is not required. Attendees will also be invited to meet members of the Lockwood-Mathews Mansion Museum’s Board and staff during the orientation sessions.

The Museum relies on dedicated volunteers for a variety of tasks, including conducting guided tours, managing Gift Shop sales, and assisting with community and fundraising events like the Old-Fashioned Flea Market and the annual Gala. Opportunities also include researching and implementing award-winning exhibitions, coordinating school and youth group outreach, managing archival projects, and contributing to marketing and media production.

Youth (16 and up) and adults can volunteer on a weekly basis or occasionally for specific projects or events.
