Patrick Henry's Red Hill

Patrick Henry's Red Hill boasts a museum collection with over 3,000 artifacts and twelve historic structures. These artifacts require the help of enthusiastic volunteers to assist in their preservation and documentation.

Collections volunteers will work with the director of collections to assist with:

• Collection storage inventory
• Artifact research and processing
• Maintenance of artifacts on display
• Imputing data into the collection management system
• Photographing artifacts

No experience is necessary, but an interest in history, museums, and curatorial work is preferred.
