Volunteer

Donate your time and talents to keeping the archives and our history alive.

Volunteer committees drive many aspects of our work at Queer History Boston.

While “closed groups” are not currently accepting new members, we welcome volunteers to contact us about committees marked “open.”

Get in touch if you’d like to join.
