Who can Volunteer?

Students, emerging professionals, or professionals who work at small museums, furloughed museum professionals, laid off museum professionals, and those cannot afford to attend the conference because of a limited budget may apply to be volunteers.

Volunteers are selected on a first-come, first-serve basis to fill specific volunteer positions. We try to ensure that as many of the graduate programs in the region as possible are represented among our conference volunteers.

Applicants will be evaluated and selected by the Mid-Atlantic Association of Museums. 

What benefits do I receive as a volunteer?

One day volunteers are required to work 2 shifts. Full conference volunteers are required to work 4 shifts total.

How do I apply?

Submit this form no later than September 19, 2022. A MAAM representative will be in touch shortly after you fill this out to confirm your application – in the meantime, please feel free to contact Caroline Brown at director@midatlanticmuseums.org with any questions.

Applying for volunteer positions does not guarantee your access to the Annual Meeting.
