Become a Volunteer or Intern

The Connecticut Historical Society is a private, tax-exempt, not-for-profit organization. We are not a State agency or financially supported by the State of Connecticut. That's why public support is so crucial! A dedicated group of volunteers and interns helps us fulfill our mission by performing a variety of tasks in every department – and by promoting the CHS in the community.

Would you like to catalog books or objects, research a historical topic, garden, monitor the antiques and rare books market, perform administration tasks, help keep our collections in order, assist at special events – or even clean? There might be a perfect CHS project just for you! In turn, you will have many opportunities like networking, making new friends, and building valuable work-related skills and experience.

Please contact Anne Guernsey at anne_guernsey@chs.org or (860) 236-5621 x256, if you are interested in volunteering or interning.

All applicants must submit a completed application and an updated resume. The application form can be downloaded below.
