The Tech Museum Needs Volunteers Like You!
Do you have a desire to learn and teach others about science and technology? If so, then The Tech Museum might be the perfect place for you to volunteer.
The Tech Museum is no ordinary museum.It serves a diverse population, including international visitors,local families and school groups.Volunteers have the opportunity to staff exhibits and interact with museum visitors.A typical day could include the following:
•Helping guests step into the role of a cyber sleuth (网络侦探)in Cyber Detectives —the nation's first interactive exhibit designed to help visitors learn about Internet safety.
•Encouraging guests to design, build and program a real robot in our Social Robots exhibit.
You don't have to be a teacher or an engineer to succeed as a volunteer.We provide hands-on training to ensure your success.If you are 18 or older and enjoy talking and working with people, we know you'll enjoy joining us.
We are primarily looking for volunteers to help us from Monday to Friday for morning (8:30 am—1:00 pm)or afternoon (12:30 pm—5:00 pm)shifts (轮班).
Also, if you are trying to volunteer around a busy schedule, you can volunteer for evening events.In order to be considered for evening event volunteering, you have to volunteer for at least two evening events per month.
Benefits of volunteering include:
Free museum entry and IMAX films after work
Free downtown parking during your volunteer shift
Discount in the store and cafe
Meeting a diverse group of co-volunteers and guests
