Volunteer!

Illinois History Day, an affiliate of National History Day and proudly sponsored by the Illinois State Museum, is a 6th-12th grade project-based learning program and research contest designed to enhance the teaching and learning of history. Each year the Illinois State Museum recruits Judges for the Illinois History Day state contest. Judges are volunteer community members who provide positive and constructive feedback to assist students in further developing their historical research and project skills. 

Many of the state’s historic sites have support groups that help organize events, provide tours, and raise money.
