Volunteer: Your time, their future.

The museum was founded by volunteers and operated for seven years before hiring its first paid employee. Today we have about one hundred active volunteers who greet visitors, feed animals, build exhibits, serve on committees, and sustain the museum in many other ways.


By volunteering at Lutz Children's Museum, you'll have the opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals, foster a love of learning in children, and make a lasting impact on your community. Your time and dedication are invaluable to our mission of inspiring young minds. Volunteering at the museum is a great way to meet new friends and build skills all while making a difference in the lives of children. Whatever your skills or interest, there is always a place for you at the Lutz Children’s Museum!


Adult Volunteers

Are you passionate about making a positive impact on your community? Lutz Children's Museum invites adults to join our team of dedicated volunteers. Whether you have a few hours a week or a month, your time and skills can make a significant difference in the lives of children.


As an adult volunteer, you can participate in a variety of activities, including:


  • Leading educational programs: Share your knowledge and enthusiasm with young learners through engaging and interactive programs.


  • Assisting with exhibits: Help maintain and enhance our museum exhibits to ensure a stimulating and educational experience for visitors.


  • Providing administrative support: Contribute to the smooth operation of the museum by assisting with office tasks or special events.


Teen Volunteers

Looking for a unique opportunity to combine community service with personal growth? Lutz Children's Museum offers a rewarding experience for teen volunteers. Whether you need to fulfill community service hours, gain valuable experience for college applications, or simply want to make a positive difference in your community, we have a place for you.


From assisting with our live animal programs to leading after-school classes, our teen volunteers play a vital role in inspiring young minds and fostering a love of learning. 


Our experienced museum curators provide mentorship and guidance, helping you develop new skills and gain valuable hands-on experience.


By volunteering at Lutz Children's Museum, you'll not only contribute to our mission but also enhance your own personal and professional development. Many of our former teen volunteers have gone on to achieve great success, citing their experience at the museum as a key factor in their journey.
