Volunteer Opportunities
Ambassador Volunteer at Museum of Surrey- Want to be part of something BIG? MoS Ambassadors will roam the museum galleries making visitors feel welcome and supported.
Location
Museum of Surrey (17710 56A Avenue, Cloverdale)
Responsibilities
What might that look like? You might start your shift handing out maps and asking people how they heard about the museum. You might direct people to onsite demonstrations or fill them in about a cool upcoming event. Next you might answer a question about the dinosaur exhibit or do a brief survey. While you’re chatting, you will probably ask if the visitor has any suggestions about how we can make their experience even better!
Basically, MOS Ambassadors are the warm welcome to the museum. You’re available if visitors need you and are prepared to work with staff to see how we can improve the visitor experience. You enjoy conversation and smiling. IF you can speak a second language, that is fabulous. If not, that’s okay too.
We would love to see your smiling face for four hours per month and are happy to train you so you can represent the museum with confidence.
