Volunteer Enrichment Committee

Who We Are
The Volunteer Enrichment Committee (VEC) is a team of dedicated volunteers who work cooperatively with staff to plan and implement continuing education and enrichment opportunities for all Denver Museum of Nature & Science volunteers.

What We Do
The committee plans two to five events per month that are open to all DMNS volunteers. Most VEC events have limited space and require volunteers to sign up in advance. Information about upcoming events and sign-up sheets can be found in the Staff and Volunteer Lounge.

How You Can Get Involved
We are always looking for great event ideas! If you have any suggestions, or would like to communicate with the committee, drop us a note in our "Suggestions" box in the Staff and Volunteer Lounge. We look forward to seeing you at our next event.

Upcoming Events

For more information or to sign up for any of these events, please see the VEC bulletin board in the Staff and Volunteer Lounge.
