Volunteering Opportunities
Please Note: We are now accepting volunteer applications. Due to Covid-19, we do not yet have any start dates for when programming will begin, but we would still like to hear from you. We will contact you with more information as it becomes available.
Volunteers play an important role in the day to day activities of the museum. They are the heart and soul of the facility and we couldn’t provide the high level of programming without them.
A special thank you to all Langley Centennial Museum volunteers for all that they do!

Docent Led Programs
Every year more than 45 docent volunteers provide museum tours and programs for school children. These volunteer educators, called docents, commit three hours per week for much of the school year to deliver the programs and attend special training programs throughout the year. Over 5,000 school children each year attend the programs given by these enthusiastic and skilled volunteers.
