United Museum Workers of Austin
We, the United Museum Workers of Austin, stand together to build a better and more equitable workplace at the Thinkery Children's Museum in Austin, TX. We help to educate and inspire the children of Austin. We work hard to foster joyful curiosity in all ages. The museum works because we do. We firmly believe in the vision and key values of the Thinkery, especially those of INCLUSION, RESPECT, and COOPERATION.  We know forming a union will empower us to build an institution that can carry those values into the future.

The United Museum Workers stand together for:

  • Democratic decision-making regarding shared working conditions
  • Fair pay and benefits that reflect and enable the high-caliber service provided by all levels of our workforce.
  • Ensuring the health, safety, and comfort of the staff and public alike.
  • Investment in professional development to foster the growth of our work and mission.
  • A commitment to equitable and inclusive hiring and promotion procedures.
We stand UNITED because we know that an injury to one is an injury to all. We dedicate ourselves to acting in solidarity, with our fellow workers and our community. We call on those who share our passion for building a better future to stand with us and support our union.
