Volunteering
Are you handy with computers or audio/visual hardware and software? Are you the person that gets called upon when something goes wrong with the internet, the TV or even the dishwasher? Would you like to gain some work experience or maybe work on your people skills? Help yourself while helping others. Volunteering at the Innovation Lab lets you share your skills while building your resume.
We would like to find people who would be willing to donate 6-8 hours each month, supervising the lab and helping patrons when necessary. We are also looking for people with skills they would like to share providing tutorials or workshops.
Please email or call us if you are interested.
