Volunteer
On-Campus Display Designer
Time commitment 4-6 hours/month.
Participation will be primarily in-person, on campus several times per year, with planning work completed virtually.
We are seeking 4 volunteers for this role.
Volunteers should be comfortable communicating via email and using Word or Google Docs. Hands-on setup work and handling historic items with care are important.
The display cases on campus offer a daily opportunity to share Roosevelt’s history with current students and visiting community members
alike. Thoughtfully designed exhibits bring past achievements, milestones, and traditions into view, rather than leaving them stored
away. By keeping these cases clean, current, and creatively presented, volunteers help ensure Roosevelt’s history is both protected
and celebrated.
Duties & Responsibilities
- Develop written plans for new or refreshed historical displays, including materials lists and layout notes, for History Committee review.
- Work with the History Committee to gather photographs, memorabilia, and supporting information.
- Install and arrange materials inside on-campus display cases.
- Perform light maintenance of display cases, including periodic cleaning.
- Attend any History Committee meetings or participate in Committee discussions.
- Most conversations will take place via email, with occasional meetings 2-3 times per year.
Collaborate closely with the History Committee at-large, and on-campus staff.
