Get Involved at KidsPlay!
Volunteer: Volunteers play a vital role in supporting KidsPlay’s programming, assisting with projects, and even helping construct new exhibits. It’s a wonderful way to share your time and talents while making a positive impact on our visitors’ experiences.
Advocate: Advocates are passionate supporters of KidsPlay’s mission, bringing specific skills, abilities, and community connections to help advance the Museum’s strategic goals and participate in fundraising—without the commitment or fiduciary responsibilities of board service.
Board Member: The Board of Directors sets the mission and strategic goals and fulfills fiduciary responsibilities while playing a key role in fundraising. Board members are generally recruited from our pool of dedicated Advocates.
