Time Commitment - In light of the placement process, time spent on volunteer orientation and training, most CHM volunteer positions require 6 months to a year commitment, at least. The Chicago History Museum is busiest during holiday vacations and commemorative holidays : holidays -facing volunteers should be readily available to volunteer on busy days. Spring is the busiest season for student field trips, so volunteers who engage with students and teachers visiting on field trips should be readily and even extra available during the spring season.
Weekday or weekend? Day or evening? Visitor-facing opportunities are available during weekdays and weekends--hours occurring mostly during the daytime. However, volunteers who help with public and member programs will have opportunities that occur in the evenings.
How many days per week? How long is a shift?Most CHM volunteers commit to about 1 shift per week. A shift is typically 3 - 4 hours. For example, volunteer gallery interpreters (docents), are at the museum on average 1 day a week, for about 3 hours. (Accomodations can be made when volunteers take vacations, or need time off for a personal matter.)
Additional questions may be addressed within any posted volunteer opportunity description, and/or during an interview to determine placement.
