Volunteer on the Discovery Council

The Discovery Council is the Museum’s all volunteer fundraising auxiliary which organizes annual events in support of the Museum’s programs and exhibitions. We look for energetic people who are able to contribute their time, talent and resources to the three fund-raising events we sponsor each year. This is an opportunity to help an institution and make a difference.

As a Discovery Council member you must commit to the following:

• Serve a minimum of three years
• Attend monthly meetings at the Museum
• Serve on an event committee and attend two of the three council events; Goblin Jamboree, Discovery Forum and the Spring Gala
• Maintain a $160 Anchor level museum membership or higher.
