The Clarke Museum is largely a volunteer-operated museum that needs YOUR help! Whether that is through a membership or through donating some of your time, any help is much appreciated. 
Our goal is to provide volunteers with the opportunity to pursue their interests in a museum setting, learn something new, and have fun in the process. We have a variety of ongoing projects from working with the collection to working with the public and everything in between. We are flexible and want to help you find the project that is just right for you!
Our volunteers do a variety of things in our museum, including:
  • docent work-staffing the museum desk, answering questions, leading tours
  • Cleaning and general maintenance
  • Research
  • Conducting inventories of the collection
  • photographing artifacts
  • scanning historic photographs
  • Living History work
  • Construction
  • Assisting with museum records
  • Public outreach via visiting schools
  • Arts Alive public outreach
  • Posting posters for events
  • Event set-up and take-down
  • demonstrations/guest lectures
  • Community classes
Interested? You can fill out our volunteer form here. Questions? Call the museum at 707 443 1947 or email us at [email protected]
