Volunteer
Volunteers are the center of the
Cave Creek Museum community.
Cave Creek area residents have a long history of neighbor-helping-neighbor, and volunteers of the Museum are an extension of that pioneer spirit.
A few of the advantages to being a museum volunteer:
- Meeting and making new friends.
- Participation in luncheons, dinners, and programing
- Advanced notice of special events and programs.
- A discount of 10% in the museum’s store.
We need your talents and expertise in the following areas:
- Share knowledge of the area’s history with visitors.
- Help visitors new to the area locate activities their family may enjoy.
- Participate in professional development opportunities.
- Help with special projects by the Staff.
Our museum volunteers are our valued community ambassadors.
