Active learning is fun and social, and the Bell Museum has opportunities for people with a commitment to contribute and who are interested in being part of the museum's exciting programs. The curators, program coordinators, administration, support staff, and student interpretive staff recognize that the most valuable resource of the museum is the commitment of time and effort made by dedicated volunteers. Volunteer time is as important, and in many cases more valuable, than financial contributions. The implementation of a strong, stable, and dynamic volunteer program not only supports the mission of the Bell Museum, it is the best way in which the Bell Museum can accomplish its mission of promoting an understanding and appreciation of nature through excellence in collections, education, and research.
Volunteers support a wide variety of educational programs and services within the museum.
