Designing a Museum Volunteer Program Toolkit 2019
(PDF)
Whether you want to start a new museum volunteer program or revitalize an
existing one, this toolkit will guide you toward the resources and framework you
need to be successful and sustainable. By framework, we mean a combination of
tools, policies, procedures, and systems you put in place to construct a
well-run and sustainable volunteer program.
As you read through the toolkit, you will take stock of what you have in
place already and what you’d like to have in the future. This will help you
distinguish essential resources from aspirational ones and determine where to
focus your energy and time. It will also create realistic expectations for your
program which can be included in your museum’s overall strategic plan and build
a case for budget requests, grant writing, and appeals to donors.
This toolkit will guide you in making day-to-day decisions and setting future
plans for your program.
