Volunteers needed at the County
Museum
The Education Division is recruiting volunteers to be gallery
interpreters at the San Bernardino County Museum in Redlands. Gallery interpreters chat with visitors
informally about the exhibits and collections at the
museum.
“Our volunteers are the connection between the museum’s collections and
visitors,” said Curator of Education Jolene Redvale “They fulfill an extremely
important role in our educational mission. New volunteers are provided with
training in interpretive skills and given on-going opportunities to continue a
commitment to learning. We teach content and skills to help volunteers begin a
rewarding experience in service to your community.”
There will be two orientation sessions; Wednesday, January 12 and
Saturday, January 15, from 10am to 11:30am. Potential volunteers are recommended to make
reservation to attend this orientation; those interested can attend one session
based on their schedule. Additional training sessions will follow in January and
early February.
To volunteer, contact Jolene Redvale at (909)
307-2669 ext 252 or email her at jredvale@sbcm.sbcounty.gov.
