Become a volunteer

If you’re interested in becoming a volunteer with us, either at the History Trust offices, or at one of our three museums, we’d love to hear from you. All you need is some spare time, a general interest in history and enthusiasm. Our volunteers are invaluable to us, and they enjoy assisting to preserve, document, and interpret the evidence of South Australian history.


Volunteer Opportunities

We are currently looking for volunteers to help with collections digitisation – particularly people to scan paper based material, and people with some photography experience. 

While the History Trust is always looking for enthusiastic volunteers our site capacity is sometimes limited. We encourage you to explore opportunities to get involved with our activities online as well. Follow us on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter to see when we’re looking for specific skills, and get familiar with our collections online

To register your interest for future volunteer work, please complete the volunteer form. Thank you for your interest.
