Volunteers museum:

In addition to the board, there is also an active group of volunteers working for the museum. People who register gifts, maintain and help set up tents for exhibitions, and much more.
They regularly come to the depot in Oosterhout to do all this work and are a great support for the museum. Do you want to help? Welcome.
