VOLUNTEERS: Helping Us Better Serve The Community

THANK YOU to All Our Volunteers!

The Wenham Museum would not be able to serve our community without the dedicated commitment of our volunteers!

There are several upcoming opportunities for high school students to volunteer through December 31, 2022.  Middle school students, if volunteering with an older sibling, are also welcome.  Please see below for descriptions.  To sign up, please click here:
