Become a Volunteer

Volunteering at Eckley Miners’ Village Museum is a family-friendly, rewarding way to connect with the past, serve your community, and become a steward of Northeastern Pennsylvania’s industrial heritage. Whether leading tours, planning special events, demonstrating traditional crafts, or interpreting our 100-acre open-air museum for diverse audiences, volunteers are indispensable members of the Eckley family.
