local community of fans, educators and students
Today, The Museum of Pop Culture (MoPOP) announces two
community-driven initiatives: A revamped volunteer program and
exclusive collaboration with local apartment complexes. Through
these initiatives, MoPOP is renewing its commitment to the
community and driving opportunities for people to engage in the
power of pop culture.
The revitalization of the volunteer program includes a handful
of exclusive perks and opportunities for volunteers to immerse
themselves in the museum culture more than ever before. Some
additions include:
- Exclusive Exhibit Previews: Be among the first to experience
new exhibits.
- Free Admission: Enjoy unlimited access to MoPOP on days
off.
- Special Events Access: Attend special events that are not open
to the general public.
- Flexible Scheduling: Volunteer times that work around personal
commitments.
- Valuable Networking Opportunities: Connect with professionals
and enthusiasts in the cultural sector.
“We are thrilled to unveil the enhancements to our volunteer
program at MoPOP. These updates reflect our commitment to creating
a rewarding and enriching experience for our volunteers, who play a
vital role in the vibrancy of our museum,” said Jessica Lane,
Director of Education and Public Programs at MoPOP. “This revamp
not only amplifies the experience of our volunteers but also
strengthens MoPOP's mission to bring people together through pop
culture.”
Aligned with its dedication to the community, MoPOP will also
work with local apartment complexes to offer 20% off museum tickets
and 10% off membership dues. This is the first program of its kind
for the museum and seeks to engage locals on a deeper level.
"Both the volunteer revamp and residential community program are
instrumental in enabling us to deliver engaging, transformative
experiences that resonate with our community and visitors alike,”
said Michele Y. Smith, CEO at MoPOP. “By integrating unique
opportunities such as membership discounts which provide exclusive
previews and valuable networking, we not only enrich our visitor
experience but also amplify our educational mission. These benefits
are designed to reward our volunteers and members for their
indispensable contributions and to encourage a greater interaction
with the diverse narratives that pop culture presents.”
