Volunteering at the Middleville & District Museum is a rewarding experience!
If you have some time to spare, please consider joining us. Contact us through Facebook, e-mail [email protected] or by phone at 613-259-5462
The Museum is always excited to welcome new volunteers to the team! Many new people joined the team in 2024 and helped out with events and projects.
Volunteers help with a number of tasks at the museum and in fact, it is entirely operated by volunteers. So if you like to bake, research, write or create, consider connecting with the Middleville and District Museum volunteer team. Maybe you like to dig in the dirt and design beautiful outdoor spaces. Why not give us a call? There are always light maintenance tasks and jobs that take a crew to complete.
How you can help!
If any of these volunteer positions look like a good match for your skills and interests, give us a call or contact us through our social media platforms.
Student Volunteer Hour Opportunities! If you are a student or know one who needs some volunteer hours, consider the Middleville and District Museum as an option.

Its a great opportunity to work as part of a team. Give us a call, e-mail or contact us through our social media.
Volunteers bring the fun to our events!
Calling all gardeners...with all levels of experience
With the acquisition of additional land, the Museum has made a start on developing the landscape around the Museum in recent years. If you have an interest in gardening and like working with others who also do, then check out the opportunities for volunteering in our upcoming yard projects this year. We have acquired new picnic tables and rain barrels. Trees, shrubs and perennial gardens have been planted on the grounds. More planting projects are planned for the upcoming season. An outdoor message center and bike rack have been installed. There's lots of work to do. Make a plan to join in the activities.
You may also be interested in becoming a member of our volunteer Board of Directors. The Board meets monthly. Each board member takes on additional duties such as artifact research, public relations, event planning or genealogy. Some of the other opportunities for Board members include:
Welcoming visitors when the Museum is open as part of a hosting team
Contributing snacks for events
Light maintenance and repair jobs
Carpentry jobs in the building and on the grounds
We also rely on volunteers for the many projects that the museum takes on. If you have a skill or expertise that you think might fit in with our activities or have some new ideas, please give us a call.
