Description

Home has many meanings, from the buildings we live in to a feeling that goes beyond a specific place. The Museum of the Home’s purpose is to reveal and rethink the ways we live, in order to live better together. It is a place to explore and debate what home means.   

We’re looking for volunteers to support our upcoming Families Celebration day! The day will include interactive creative workshops, inspired by the content of our new rooms, performances and storytelling!  

We’re looking for volunteers to help steward the event, supporting wayfinding, and helping manage capacity for performances. This is a really exciting event in the Museum’s public programming, and we’re looking for friendly and approachable people to help us realise our visions for the day!

In this role you will: 

  • Help to greet visitors to the Family Day 

  • Share information about the days programme with visitors 

  • Help guests navigate the Museum site and find workshops. 

  • Assist with performances
