Engagement

Are you passionate about climate action and eager to share your knowledge with others?

We're looking for docents/tour guides and volunteers to help advance CAM’s mission and we’d love for you to be a part of the CAM family!

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a community of dedicated individuals committed to making a difference. We will be planning training sessions soon and we are gathering information for those that are interested in taking action now! During these engaging sessions, you'll learn how to open/close an event and effectively guide visitors through our exhibits, sharing insights on sustainability, climate solutions, and the innovative work happening right here in Chicago. Our founding board members will bring their wealth of experience and enthusiasm to ensure you leave inspired and ready to make an impact.  

Sign up today to be a part of something extraordinary by filling out the form to the right. We can't wait to see you at CAM!

Depending on your interest, you will be contacted once we have an event that we need volunteers for or once the training session is scheduled.

Let's work together to educate, inspire, and drive action for a sustainable future!
