Annapolis Maritime Museum invites all current and prospective volunteers to gather for a celebration of this past year’s achievements and a preview of the year ahead at the Volunteer Open House on Tuesday, February 1, from 6 – 8 p.m.

This past year, more than 200 volunteers donated more than 4,000 hours of service to the community. This year, the Museum needs volunteers to expand its innovative environmental education program, conduct tours to the historic Thomas Point Shoal Lighthouse, restore wooden boats, interpret the Museum’s exhibits to the public, and help with the winter seminar series, the summer concert series, and events like the Annapolis Oyster Roast in March and the Boatyard Beach Bash in September.

Volunteers will learn more about these and other opportunities to have fun while serving the community. Refreshments will be served. For more information, contact the Museum’s Volunteer Coordinator, Amanda Elliott, at 410-295-0104 or volunteer@amaritime.org.
