Volunteer Opportunities

Be part of something meaningful — preserve local history and connect with community.

Overview

Redlands Coast Museum is powered by volunteers — and we’re always looking for people with curiosity, commitment, and a willingness to help. Whether you’re into guiding tours, restoring exhibits, or supporting events, there’s a place for you here.

You don’t need experience — just a good attitude and a love for learning. We’ll show you the ropes and support you every step of the way.
