Help connect visitors to the Steveston Tram and Richmond’s transportation history.

We welcome volunteers 16 years old and up who enjoy learning new things, working as a team, and sharing their enthusiasm with the public. Training and support are provided, and roles are flexible to suit different interests and schedules.

Volunteer Roles

Special Event Volunteers (Short Term)

Support fun, one-time or seasonal events throughout the year. Tasks may include helping with activities, sharing basic Tram information, and assisting with crowd flow. This role is ideal for volunteers who enjoy a variety of experiences or short-term commitments.

For special event volunteer opportunities at the Steveston Tram, please check the City of Richmond’s volunteer website.

Greeters (Long Term)

Be the friendly first face that visitors meet. Greeters welcome guests, share a brief history, highlight key features of the museum, and help set the tone for a great visit.

Greeters enjoy chatting with people, wearing a Tram uniform, and volunteering regularly (at least twice a month for six months).

Specialist Volunteers (Long Term)

Do you have specialized knowledge in trams, trains, or public transit?

Specialist volunteers enjoy sharing their expertise with visitors, wearing a Tram uniform, and typically commit to volunteering a minimum of twice a month for at least one year.
