 Volunteers, 2003 year  Volunteers should know how to do everything!  In the Hermitage courtyard. Beside the poster "Caution! Cats!"  Discussing projects |
The Volunteer Service was created in May 2003 to help the departments of the State Hermitage during the celebrations marking the 300th anniversary of St Petersburg. The Director of the Volunteer Service is Mikhail Kozhukhovsky, junior researcher at the State Hermitage.
Since its creation, the Volunteer Service has become an essential part of the inner life of the museum. The Service regularly cooperates with various departments like the International, Archeology and Antiquities departments.The team is constantly welcoming new volunteers of different nationalities, ages and backgrounds.
Currently there are volunteers from Russia, Great Britain, Germany, France and Italy. Among them are students, linguists, art historians or journalists. The Service is thus able to develop and implement a broad variety of projects using their professional skills. Also, thanks to the former volunteers still keeping in touch with the museum, the Service has established a wide international network.
Our team consists mainly of young people, pupils and students, who get an amazing insight into the life of one of the world's leading museums and have the chance to gain a wonderful professional experience.
