Did you know that you can volunteer at each of our museums? As a volunteer, you can make an important contribution to Amgueddfa Cymru and the story of Wales. Volunteers get involved in all sorts of projects across all eight of our sites. Your involvement can bring a fresh perspective to our collections, helps us with learning activities or even help us build some of our historic buildings. So why not get involved!
