PLEASE NOTE: Due to COVID-19, our Volunteer Program is being reassessed to determine how volunteers will continue to engage in the Museum. We apologize that we are not currently accepting applications for new volunteers.
For more information or questions, please email volunteers@sdnhm.org.
We offer a wide range of volunteer opportunities for over 700 volunteers, including: public engagment volunteers (Canyoneer hiking guides, Docent teaching guides, Museum Whalers, teen camp aides, and NATuralists who volunteer within the museum); science department opportunities (Birds and Mammals, Botany, Entomology, Herpetology, Paleontology, and the Research Library); and administrative departments. For high school students, we have camp volunteer positions and internship opportunities in conjunction with local schools.
