Volunteering

Picture of cooking at Hosmer House
Please note that because of COVID-19, we have been doing fewer in-person activities than usual.  When activities resume, we will be delighted to meet more people in person!

We are always looking for volunteers to help out at various times. Our Hosmer House ‘Museum is Open’ days are staffed with volunteers who guide visitors through the Hosmer House and its exhibits and our Barn (training provided). On those days, we can also use volunteers to greet the public and accept the entrance admission fee. Our house, grounds, and collections need upkeep; assistance is always welcome.  Volunteers help in Jenks Library with accessioning, organizing, and assisting our visitors (training provided). 

We also benefit from people's specialized knowledge.  Our understanding of our collections and of Acton history grows from fresh insights brought by visitors and volunteers.  Please join us.

Please consider where you might like to volunteer. Then email us at Jenkslibrary@verizon.net or call us at 978-264-0960.
