At Science Museum Oklahoma, we enrich people's lives by revealing the wonder and relevance of science. We welcome volunteers who share that same passion!
Volunteers are essential for enriching guest experiences and supporting operations at Science Museum Oklahoma. From encouraging guest exploration and program engagement, to supporting staff behind the scenes or with special events, volunteering at SMO is a great way to get involved in the community and make a real difference for our museum and guests.
Science Museum Oklahoma seeks to recruit, develop, and retain individuals from diverse backgrounds, and encourages all to apply. We strive to create and support an affirming environment for all staff, interns, volunteers, and trustees. Volunteers are needed in almost every area of the museum to help make every day a great day for guests. Some duties that are available include bus greetings, assisting with StoryTime Science, tours, garden maintenance, assisting with collections and so much more!
