Volunteer Opportunities

Volunteers are a vital part of the Terre Haute Children’s Museum. The Terre Haute Children’s Museum is committed to sharing its values with those who want to help ensure our mission “To enrich our children's lives through the exploration of science and technology.”

As one of 350 mind-opening science museums in the country, we want to inspire, impact and influence our children to think outside the classroom.
