VOLUNTEER SPOTLIGHT – Katheryn Culpepper
Kathryn Culpepper was raised in Nacogdoches, Texas and studied Art History and History at the University of Texas at Austin. After graduating, she went to a 2 year Bible school program in Anaheim, California where she studied church history and partook in community and college campus related outreach and service.
Some of her fondest memories growing up were visiting her grandparents in Fernandina for the holidays. She has always been captivated by the beauty and historic legacy of the town. In January 2026, she moved to Fernandina to be with her grandmother where she is now working as an intern at the museum.
She says, “The engaging museum environment that causes the stories and history of mankind to come alive has drawn me from a young age. It would be a delight to help others have the same kind of positive museum experiences that I had growing up.”
