The Oshkosh Public museum is a great community resource and depends on help from people just like you. If you love history, natural sciences or art, or just enjoy the great atmosphere of museums and like to meet and work with people, we invite you to contact us. Follow the links on the left to learn about the many ways you can get involved with the Oshkosh Public Museum!

Volunteer opportunities are available in both behind-the-scenes positions working with the archivist, curator or registrar or in visitor friendly positions as gallery guides and school programmers. Periodically, volunteers are also needed to work on special projects.

We accept a limited number of college level interns each semester. Most internships are set up one semester ahead, so we strongly suggest you contact the museum and your advisor well in advance of when you are interested in interning. For more information or to apply for an internship, contact the museum assistant director: Michael Breza.

The Auxiliary is a great group of men and women who are interested in helping support the museum. They meet once a month for fellowship and programs on a wide range of subjects, from history to art to antiques. The Auxiliary supports the museum in many ways and has fun doing it!

You can also become involved through the membership program. Have fun supporting the museum while receiving special members-only benefits, such as free admission and special exhibit previews.

Serving on the Museum Board is another way to channel your enthusiasm, experience and interests and to help the museum grow.
