Carts contain artifacts related to larger exhibits throughout the museum and volunteers may choose the cart that best matches their interest. All educational material and training is provided. Scheduling is based on volunteers’ availability and is especially open to volunteers at least 14 years old on weekends. Discovery Cart volunteers receive free parking, Museum discounts, and free membership after 12 shifts.
