Curatorial Assistant -- Museum Collections and Artifact Handling

Project Description:
Gain hands-on experience working with the museum's artifacts. These volunteers provide invaluable assistance to the curator by helping with cataloging, collection maintenance and exhibitions. A phenomenal opportunity to learn about Hawai`i's and America's history in a very personal way. The Mission Houses Museum connects the story of the American Protestant missionaries and their descendants to the history and culture of Hawai`i in order to give present generations of residents and visitors a deeper understanding of, and appreciation for, Hawai`i's rich and complex history.
