Volunteers are very important to our organization!

The staff depends on the support of interested community members to help when and where needed. AND IT’S FUN!!!

Every department uses volunteers to get the job done! If you have a green thumb, the Battles Museums need you. If you enjoy parties and are good at organizing, the Watson-Curtze Mansion will appreciate having your involvement. If you’re good at data input, there are many places for you to use your skills. Good at writing, abstracting, indexing? Able to build shelves and move boxes? Like to work with photos and research? The Archives will appreciate hearing from you. Like to decorate or bake?? Enjoy meeting with your friends for coffee and getting a mailing out, contact us at 814-454-1813.

There are hundreds of opportunities to learn new skills and have fun doing it! Many new projects are tackled each year. Seal a wall. Share your craft knowledge. Meet new people. Hang an exhibit. Have a good time. Call us at 814-454-1813 to explore the options.

 

Become a Donor!
Cleaning out that attic? Moving? Settling that family estate? Changing business locations? Wonder what to do with those old photos of family members, of other people, places, things, local events and activities? OR diaries, letters, correspondence, business and industry records, advertising, the city directory, those old glassplate negatives, the architectural plans of your house., that silly hat with the local store logo on the band?

Please call us at 814-454-1813 Ext. 0. We’re prompt, courteous and interested. If we aren’t able to help you, we may be able to refer you to someone else. Becoming a donor is the ultimate form of commitment and support.
