Volunteering at Hearthstone Historic House Museum

Hearthstone Historic House Museum offers a wide range of volunteering roles for people who enjoy history, the history of technology, Appleton local history, Victorian life, architecture, interior design, music, art, vintage clothing, gardening, and hands-on project work. Volunteers work alongside a friendly, multi-generational team and can contribute in areas such as collections handling, garden maintenance, visitor engagement, education support, and event assistance.

There are no minimum time commitments required and once registered volunteers can use the museum's online scheduling program to sign up for shifts or opportunities that suit their interests and availability. The museum explicitly welcomes volunteers across a broad age range (stated as 14 to 84), and many current volunteers are high school and college students.
