Calling all Tolland rising 7th through 12th graders: the Tolland Historical Society is holding a one-hour orientation session for its Student Intern Program on Monday, June 19 at 10:30 a.m. in the shed display area of the Old Tolland County Jail and Museum at 52 Tolland Green.
Through the program, you can learn all aspects of a working museum, how to accession historic artifacts, design displays and even give museum tours to the public.
Interns participate in Sunday events and conduct research on Tolland history. They earn community services hours and a reference letter.
Interns typically volunteer three to six hours a week, either Mondays from 9 a.m. to noon and/or Sundays from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m.
It’s fun!
Interested students and their parents can contact Museum Director Kathy Bach at 860-872-7716 or by email at kwbach@gmail.com.
