Donate Time – Become a Volunteer

The Tibet Museum greatly benefits from volunteers from different communities, and it is always in need of graphic designers, archivist and museum specialists. We seeks students and professionals with practical experience in specific areas of museum work relating to curating, cataloging, exhibition and graphic design. Tibetans can apply for internships at the Tibet Museum through Tibet Corps, a public-private initiative of the Central Tibetan Administration.
