Board Leadership & Volunteer Opportunities


Volunteer Opportunities

Thank you for your interest in volunteering at the RJD. Our volunteers provide an invaluable service to the Museum. They welcome visitors, provide quality educational programming, and help keep the grounds looking beautiful. We hope you will join us!

Volunteer opportunities include:

  • Gardening
  • Special Event Assistance
  • Administrative Assistance / Marketing Assistance
  • Visitor Services (Front Desk and Shop)
  • Don’t see yourself in any job above? Talk to us about your interests and skills!

Volunteers must be at least 18 years of age. Volunteer hours are flexible according to the time commitment and interest of each volunteer. Most positions require weekday hours. Those interested should complete a Volunteer Application and CORI Form. Completed forms can be mailed to the museum or email the volunteer coordinator.


Interested in the RJD Board of Trustees? Nominations open in March 2025. Until then, consider joining a committee. Contact Dawn Salerno for more information.
