The Abbey Museum is looking for volunteers to assist with making and maintaining props for the annual Medieval Festival and other public programs.

The Museum has an active annual program and our props are an important part of providing quality and engaging experience.

Building wooden stalls of various types for festival use. Creating replica artefacts for student use in Archaeological Digs or other programs. Constructing signs for use in the grounds or at the festival. Making furniture for the museum or office or festival use.

We are looking for volunteers who have the ability to work on your own or as a team member, to be practical and careful, have woodworking, painting and maintenance skills and who are willing to seek advice and guidance from Administration or Education Manager when needed.

Our volunteers are occasionally asked to help out with other jobs, especially around the time of the annual Medieval Festival. The Abbey Museum provides woodworking and craft tools, equipment and materials.
