Help Shape the Future of the Children’s Museum of the Northeast Kingdom

The Children’s Museum of the NEK is growing — and so is our leadership team. We are seeking passionate, community-minded individuals to join our Founding Board of Directors as we build a vibrant, inclusive space where children and families can explore the history, culture, and creativity of Vermont’s Northeast Kingdom.

We are especially interested in individuals with experience in:

  • Education

  • Early childhood development

  • Fundraising or grant writing

  • Construction or facilities

  • Finance or nonprofit management

  • Local history, culture, or the arts

Board members play a vital role in shaping the museum’s vision, ensuring accountability, and helping us build a strong foundation for growth. This is a working board — members are hands-on and actively engaged in helping the museum launch and thrive.

Whether you’re a seasoned professional or a dedicated neighbor with a love for kids and community, we welcome your voice at the table.
