Volunteer Opportunities

It’s Fair Time!

Volunteer at the Fair with the Lane County History Museum! This year we will have a booth in the Performance Hall where we can showcase our collections to a whole new audience. Exhibits will feature the rambunctious Whiskalantes and an interactive facial hair ranking showdown of the ages!

Volunteers will receive: 1) free fair admission for the day you’re volunteering, 2) a free limited edition LCHM t-shirt, and 3) our thanks and gratitude.

Fair Volunteer Sign Ups have ENDED! See you at the fair!

Please note: While you’ll receive free fair admission, you will need to pay to park, which is a five dollar fee (cash only). If you are able, consider public transit.
