Support - Volunteers

Museums cannot exist without volunteers. Many volunteer opportunities are available at the Lancaster Quilt & Textile Museum and the Heritage Center Museum.

Opportunities

Museum Store Volunteer - Should have a feel for the retail business and some interest in quilts and textiles, along with a satisfaction in helping customers

Lobby Greeter - The frontline to the visitors who come to the museum

Collections Assistance Volunteer - Works with the curator to process and maintain artifacts in the collection.

Education Volunteer - Includes assisting with a school program, supervising hands-on galleries, judging at Regional History Day, assisting at History Camp and more.

Quilt Museum Demonstrator - Demonstrates quilting, embroidery and other textile skills to visitors.

Each opportunity has flexible hours. Please contact the Volunteer Coordinator or call (717) 299-6440.

Recognition

The Board of Trustees and Lancaster Quilt & Textile Museum staff realize the value of volunteers. We honor volunteers at two annual events: a summer potluck picnic and a formal luncheon in the winter.

Volunteers also receive parking validation and a 10% discount on purchases at either Museum Store.
