Volunteers

Have you ever wondered if you would be one of those lucky ones who could work for a museum? Would you like to meet people from all over the world? You bet you can!

The Rocky Mountain Quilt Museum would like to invite you to VOLUNTEER as a Greeter and Docent and experience the wonderful and diverse world of art and textiles combined into beautiful quilts. Volunteer incentives include a volunteer newsletter and Bonus Bucks to use in the museum store. In addition, on the first Tuesday evening of a new exhibit (4 per year), there is a volunteer meeting to offer in depth information about the exhibits, alerts about upcoming events, and a chance to chat with other volunteers.

Other opportunities include education, research, special events and office work. The Rocky Mountain Quilt Museum is located at the foot of Lookout Mountain in downtown Golden, CO. Contact us at: 1111 Washington Avenue, Golden, CO 80401, 303-277-0377 or e-mail our Director of Volunteer Services at vol_services@rmqm.org.
