The Museum of Oxford is seeking volunteers during the summer to learn about the museum and its collections and to engage with visitors. It is offering six to eight week placements where you will be able to steward the galleries, help collect and collate visitor feedback as well as engaging with the visiting public. This opportunity would suit those looking for work in museums and heritage and will give invaluable experience with a vast range of people (but no salary).
Those interested should send a brief statement of interest to museum@oxford.gov.uk and be able to commit to a minimum of 4 hours per week over the summer months. Applicants also need to be available for an induction on the 14th of July to be able to start during the week commencing the 21st of July. Please contact David on 01865 252417 for an informal discussion if you are interested in these placements.
