Join Our Team

Program Assistants help bring the High Prairie Museum to life by supporting school programs, public programs, events, and hands-on visitor activities.

This flexible role can be shaped around a volunteer’s interests and may include welcoming groups, assisting with activities, helping with event setup, supporting family programs, or contributing ideas for new ways to engage the community.

This role is best suited to volunteers who are interested in helping on an occasional or as-needed basis. Opportunities may be connected to school visits, public programs, community events, or special activities, and may take place during weekdays, evenings, or weekends.

Visitor Services Assistants help create a welcoming experience for museum visitors by supporting information services, the museum shop, and front desk operations.

This role may include greeting visitors, answering basic questions, assisting with retail sales, sharing information about High Prairie and the surrounding region, and helping visitors find their way through the museum. Volunteers in this role should be comfortable learning and using a point-of-sale system.

This role is best suited to volunteers who are able to support visitor services through a regular three- to four-hour shift, either on a consistent weekly schedule or as scheduled to help fill coverage gaps during opening hours.
