Santa Barbara Maritime Museum Seeking Volunteers

Since reopening this past spring, the Santa Barbara Maritime Museum has been busier than ever…including the years before Covid! And now the museum finds that its success has emphasized the importance of the volunteers that underpin that success. In short, the museum needs more volunteers! 

SBMM is seeking outgoing and enthusiastic individuals to welcome visitors to its Outdoors Santa Barbara Visitor Center, the 4th floor deck with the best view in Santa Barbara!  Volunteers make connections between the Museum and all its visitors, those from local areas and those from around the world. Volunteers also help maintain displays and assist with special events, exhibit openings, art receptions, and community festivals.

For themselves, volunteers enjoy the social environment of the Museum, get to make new friends, and gain a feeling of fulfillment knowing that they are part of an organization that values Santa Barbara’s rich maritime history and tradition…and its volunteers.

For more information on how to volunteer, contact Jesse Baker-Lorelli, Volunteer Coordinator, jbaker@sbmm.org or 805 456-8748. To apply, complete a volunteer application at www.sbmm.org/volunteer-application.

Thank you for helping us inform the community of this opportunity.
