Why Volunteer for Shaker Historical Society?
Volunteering for the Shaker Historical Society is a great way to give back to your local historical society and community! We have lots of diverse volunteer opportunities available throughout the year. You can come and go as you please without any formal commitment! However to sweeten the deal, volunteers with over 10 logged hours receive discounted membership rates, exclusive Spirit Tree Gift Shop discount of 10% off all merchandise, and first dibs on SHS workshops and programming.
*NOTICE* All in-person volunteer opportunities are suspended due to COVID-19. Please keep an eye out on your volunteer newsletter for upcoming opportunities!
