Active LeMay Volunteers: CLICK HERE to read the Official Joint Statement re: Marymount from the LeMay family and the LeMay Museum
If you enjoy classic automobiles and would like to work with other people who share your love for cars, become a LeMay – AMERICA'S CAR MUSEUM® volunteer!
As a non-profit organization, the Museum relies on the hard work and dedication of volunteers. Our flexible volunteers preserve the Museum’s unique collection of automobiles, share information about the Museum to the public, and contribute to the Museum’s Mission. Active volunteers are asked to record a minimum of 4 hours/month throughout the year (though we also have once-a-year volunteers who serve at the Museum’s Annual LeMay Car Show and Auction on the last Saturday in August) and new volunteers also attend a Volunteer Orientation. New orientations are generally held on a monthly basis.
For information, please feel free to contact us by email or call 253.779.8179.
