VIMM’s Youth Impact Program provides Volunteer opportunities for students from Nanaimo’s local Secondary School Districts, to meet their Grade 12 graduation requirements. This program promotes self-confidence, teaches essential life skills, offers employable working experience, and fosters an appreciation for Nanaimo’s heritage.
Volunteers are essential to the fabric of VIMM, and to the wider public by strengthening the museum’s community connection.
Currently, VIMM’s Volunteer opportunities are in Visitor Services. In Fall 2026, we will be expanding our Volunteer opportunities into additional museum spaces such as historical research, collections management, and curatorial mentorship.
