Become Involved

We encourage everyone to become involved with the Human Origins Initiative! You can follow us on social media (Facebook and Twitter/X); you can become a volunteer in our exhibition; you can submit your answer to "What Does It Mean To Be Human?"; you can submit a question to our scientists; you can sign up for the museum's newsletter to find out about our onsite and online programs; or you can make a donation to help make all of these offerings possible.

Submit Your Response to "What Does It Mean To Be Human?"

The Human Origins Initiative wants to know what YOU think it means to be human! Submit your response here, and it may be featured on our website or in our exhibition.

Volunteer Opportunities

The Museum welcomes energetic volunteers who can share their skill, experience, and creativity with our visitors and the Museum community.

Submit Question

We invite you to ask our scientists a question about human evolution. We can't answer every question that we receive, but we will do our best to answer as many as we can within about 7-10 working days. Submit your question.
