Volunteer with Leeds Museums & Galleries
Joining our team as a volunteer is a great way to develop new skills and knowledge, meet new people and get exclusive behind-the-scenes access to each of our nine sites.
“My experience volunteering with Leeds Museums and Galleries has equipped me with the foundation skills necessary to apply for further museum work, such as object handling and visitor engagement.”
