Get to Know Us -Volunteer Opportunities-August 21 & 22, 2015

The Banning Museum is seeking volunteers and will host two Get to Know Us receptions on Friday, August 21, 2015 and Saturday, August 22, 2015 from 11:00 a.m. – 12:30 p.m. The receptions will be held in the conference room at the Banning Museum, 401 East “M” Street, Wilmington, CA 90744.

Volunteers at the Banning Museum attend a training class to gain the background necessary to offer public tours and special group tours of the interior of the Museum, Stagecoach Barn and grounds. Once the training class is completed the volunteers are able to participate in a full range of Museum programs such as conservation and maintenance of antiques, participating in decorative arts exhibitions, special events, Museum Shop assistance, lecture and discussion committees, volunteer activities, Living History Program and School Program.

The Museum’s School Program is designed to introduce fourth grade students to local cultural and historical heritage and may require additional training to familiarize new volunteers to the program details.

Classes are every Friday from September 4 – October 23rd, 9:00 am – 12:00 noon. October 23rd is the Graduation lunch, 9:00 am- 1:30 pm.
