Your service can make a world of difference to the future of Kansas The Society is headquartered at the Kansas History Center in Topeka. Many of the volunteer opportunities are avilable at this location. The state archeology office has prehistoric and historic collections numbering in the tens of thousands. Stone and bone tools and glass and ceramic artifacts are cleaned, numbered and classified by volunteers. Archival assistants provide valuable service numbering, flattening, and organizing paper items.
Opportunities are available to work with the public at the research desk and in the microfilm room.
If you have your own computer, you can even work from home. Young people love to explore the nooks and crannies of the hands-on exhibits in the Discovery Place. You are there to facilitate their fun. Serving as a tour guide at the Kansas Museum of History is a wonderful chance to do both. You do not need to have prior knowledge of Kansas history.
