If you’re interested in volunteering at either of the McFarland Historical Society museums, there are many ways you can contribute. If you like to bake, you can even volunteer right from your own home!
Here are a few ways volunteers pitch in throughout the year:
- Participate in a cleaning or holiday decorating crew at the Larson House Museum (LHM).
- Provide musical or other entertainment at an indoor or outdoor event.
- Play piano at the LHM, including holiday songs for A Very Victorian Christmas in December.
- Set up exhibits at the Historical museum or LHM.
- Set up and taking down tents and tables for outdoor events at either museum.
- Cook and/or serve food & desserts at our tea parties and other events.
- Bake holiday cookies to offer to visitors during December LHM tours.
- Demonstrate a skill at the History Museum during Early Days of Wisconsin.
- Do minor repairs or painting projects.
- Guide tours at either museum. We have a binder with notes on each room so you have the facts right at hand.
