Oral history research for the Smuggling Museum

Are you looking for a volunteer job in your neighbourhood or can you use some help finding new volunteers? Erfgoedvrijwilliger.nl is the place for volunteers and volunteer organizations in the heritage sector.

On the website there are several vacancies for volunteers, by province or type of work. For example, they are currently looking for volunteers for Oral History research for the Smuggling Museum.

Smuggling is of all times, just think of the First and Second World War. European unification has changed the character of smuggling though. Stories from the past and present are displayed in the Smuggling Museum. With your research and oral history interviews, you will contribute to collecting the stories of (ex-)smugglers and customs officers.

Because the museum is going through a process of privatization, they are looking for several volunteers to help them expand, professionalize and increase the number of visitors. Would you like to add new stories to the collection of Smuggling Museum Cranendonck? More information and the vacancy can be found here.

Erfgoedvrijwilliger.nl is a collaboration between Erfgoed Gelderland, Erfgoed Brabant and Erfgoedhuis Zuid-Holland. With the website the heritage houses contribute to a future-proof heritage sector.
