KIDS ROCKWELL will be open open daily 9 a.m. – 5 p.m. through April 29.

The Rockwell Museum maintains a unique work environment in the beautifully restored Old City Hall Building in downtown Corning in New York’s Finger Lakes Region.

Nestled in scenic upstate New York, Corning is a vibrant community with an attractive, historical downtown and home to Corning Incorporated—one of the world’s leading innovators in glass and materials science and world-renowned Corning Museum of Glass.

Our small staff is a committed, creative, energetic team that continually embraces diversity of thought and backgrounds. We are passionate about advancing our work and our commitment to the community. We offer full- and part-time positions with excellent benefits. The Rockwell Museum is an Equal Opportunity Employer.

Interested in volunteering?

Our volunteers are more than just appreciated members of the Rockwell community — they are the very foundation of our success. 

Benefits to volunteers are numerous, including endless opportunities to engage in The Rockwell’s many educational programs and lectures, annual field trips and recognition events, as well a generous discount in the Museum Store. In return, volunteers work as ambassadors for the museum, helping the community fall in love with The Rockwell and the art in its galleries. 

Rockwell volunteers receive an initial orientation, as well as topic-specific trainings throughout the year. All volunteers are required to pass a background check and be at least 18 years of age.
