The General Henry Knox Museum is a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) organization which relies on the generosity of its supporters to survive. Membership dues, tour admissions, and ticket and gift shop sales do not cover the costs needed to operate the Museum. Each year we look to donations to help us keep the story of Henry Knox alive.
Supporters may donate any amount in unrestricted funds, allowing Knox Museum to pay its bills and keep the doors open so that we may continue to offer quality education, preservation, military, and community programming throughout the year.
Gifts of $1000 or more provide for membership in our Signature Society. Details and membership benefits are below.
Thank you for your support!

Volunteer is a much-abused word. Good synonyms might include reader, researcher, garden lover, people-person, engaged, educator, mentor, the list goes on. Sadly, sometimes, interested individuals, like you, sign on to volunteer for an organization and you quickly become disillusioned or feel under appreciated.

We are building a robust event season, while we anticipate annual visitors, host field trips, and gather to celebrate our history while looking to our future.
