New Volunteer Orientation

May 10
9:30AM - 10:30AM

We hold free orientation sessions at the Pima Air & Space museum every second Saturday of the month.  Orientation gives you an overview of the Foundation's volunteer program and how you can participate.

Simply be in the Pima Air & Space Museum admissions area at 9:30AM, a staff person will meet you there and brief you on orientation.  Please park in the visitor parking lot.

After the orientation briefing, you are encouraged to begin the self-guided portion of your orientation.  If you want to make a day of it you are welcome to have lunch on us, please be sure to ask for details.

Take a look at the volunteer opportunities listed on our Volunteer page.  If you think you might enjoy serving on one of our teams, then join us at the next orientation.

Thanks for your interest in volunteering with us.
