Volunteer: Volunteers Can Support Many Facets 0f Museum Work

Andrew Horton dressed as a colonial seaman to attend Education Day at the annual Urbana Oyster Festival in November working with elementary and middle school students. He guided and expanded their understanding of colonial craftsmen from our area making bricks. Working with grinding oysters and mixing them together with our local clay, water and sand the students replicated building materials that were used to construct colonial buildings that still stand in Middlesex County today.

 

Museum volunteers Vel Gray and Claudia Soucek visited with MHS history students who toured the museum in April. They helped students with a scavenger hunt designed around the World War II exhibit including Middlesex veterans and their personal stories. The students heard a first-hand family account of Soucek’s uncle’s story of being shot down over France 4 days after D-Day.

New county resident Renee Loustaunau joined our pool of volunteers after visiting our tent at Arts in the Middle event. She began working with us researching and installing exhibits. She then transitioned to working with records related to our accessions. She has captured specific information on each item that has been donated to the museum which then allows David Jett to enter it into the computer system. She has also helped with research into the background information about the objects and the time period that they came from. 

New volunteer David Jett has helped us with accessions work on the computer by inputting donated items and their specific details into our PastPerfect software program. This allows access to the information for future exhibits and community talks.

 

Stephanie Mulligan has helped as a volunteer with our accessions. She has helped clean historic textiles that were from the 1920s. Utilizing a slow soaking processing, she removed decades of dirt, dust, and mite dander from fragile fabric. They show beautifully after drying in the sun. We have added her latest work to the collection of children's clothing here in the main museum.

We periodically need volunteers to assist with beautification and maintenance of our grounds and buildings to maintain a welcoming and attractive environment. This includes everything from scraping and painting windows and replacing deck boards to regularly raking trails and grounds to weeding, spreading mulch (and so much more!) to enhance the appearance of our outside spaces.

We need enthusiastic volunteers to help with the following activities this month!

1.  Spread mulch evenly across designated waterfront areas and tidy up the area after mulch distribution is complete.  

2.  Scrape, glaze & paint window sills on Tea House and tidy up afterward.

We greatly appreciate the support of our community members who are willing to contribute their time and energy to maintain the beauty of our buildings & grounds. If anyone or any group can give a few hours here and there to accomplish these tasks, that would be greatly appreciated. 

We welcome teams.

If you have any questions, please reach out to let us know your availability. You may contact us through:
