Iowa Children’s Museum Volunteer Opportunities, October 2015

 

Volunteer Playologist

Tuesdays, 10am-6pm; Wednesdays, 10am-6pm; Thursdays, 10am-6pm; Fridays, 10am-8pm; Saturdays, 10am-6pm; Sundays, 11am-6pm

You’re here to get your J.D., but what if you could add “Playologist” to your resume as well?!  There are opportunities to volunteer six days a weeks at the Iowa Children’s Museum and help their staff (playologists) run events, interact with families, and putting props away after the kids are done enjoying them.  The Iowa Children’s Museum is very flexible about volunteer hours; email Alex Alwine, Volunteer Coordinator at volunteer@theicm.org to inquire more about dates and times.

These events count toward Community Hours.

Super Hero Night

Sunday, October 25, 6pm-8pm

This is a special night at the Iowa Children’s Museum, and just in time for Halloween! This event is dedicated to children with special needs and their families.  We are looking for volunteers who would like to interact with the families and help with taking down our custom-designed exhibits after the event.  Remember, you don’t have to wear a cape to be a super hero in the Iowa City community!

This event counts toward Community Hours.

STEM Family Free Night

Friday, October 30, 4:45pm-8:30pm

Every last Friday of the month the Iowa Children’s Museum is free to the public.  Volunteers are needed to assist with STEM projects, guest relations, and quality assurance.  The ICM is looking for a lot of volunteers for this event, so this is a great opportunity to gather some friends together and get service hours together!

Monster Mash Halloween Celebration

Saturday, October 31, 9:45am-4:30pm

Come help out the ICM put on their annual Halloween celebration!  There will be crafts, games, treats, and lots of fun- plenty of areas for volunteers!  You can even dress up in a costume if you want, so long as it’s kid-friendly.  It’ll be a graveyard smash!
