Become a part of something bigger

The Indiana State Museum and Historic Sites is a statewide museum system with 12 locations, including a central museum in downtown Indianapolis and 11 historic sites across the state of Indiana. Each location offers interesting, educational and unique experiences. Visitors can engage with the past and connect it to the present, carrying their newfound knowledge and experiences with them long after their visit. We invite you to become a part of this exciting institution as a volunteer.
