"Why Should I Volunteer at the Waterworks Museum?"

We asked our volunteers for an answer to that question.  Here are their 'Top 5 Reasons':

5. "Because it’s where getting all steamed up is a good thing."

4. "It's a reality check (…And you thought YOUR plumbing problems were big!)"

3. "You can get in touch with your inner steam-geek."

2. "You can learn more about Boston's Golden Age than anyone else you know (doesn't everyone love a smarty-pants?)"

1. "You have an insane urge to polish lots of brass." 

 

Seriously, though, volunteers are crucial to the success of the Waterworks Museum. Do good and have fun at the same time - unbeatable!  Through the efforts of our extraordinary volunteers, the museum is able to provide many quality programs and events throughout the year.
