The Volunteer Association Committee held a planning day last Saturday with representatives from each of the Museum's placement areas. We reviewed the accomplishments of 2018 that included a revised Volunteer Handbook, more social media updates, and a series of social events for volunteers. Looking forward into 2019, watch out for announcements from the 4 working groups struck to address a new set of priorities: - work room and sales review - volunteer engagement - volunteer roles - communication links If any of these topics strike a cord, email tmcassociation@gmail.com or message us here to contribute your ideas.
