Museum Jobs – Current Openings

Landis Valley Village & Farm Museum is Pennsylvania’s premier museum of Pennsylvania German history. Founded by George and Henry Landis in 1925, the museum has been steadfast in connecting our guests to the breadth and depth of Pennsylvania German contributions to agriculture, their unique culture, and long-standing traditions. Although this is our mission, our staff is the lifeblood of the Landis Valley Village & Farm Museum.
