The public can also participate by sharing personal collections of photographs, documents or other items from Ocracoke's past and by volunteering at the Gift Shop. The OPS website includes a section on the history of Ocracoke Island, and the Museum offers weekly historical "Porch Talks" during the summer season. One of the organization's main fund-raisers is its annual raffle of a one-of-a-kind quilt designed and stitched by local artists and donated by The Ocracoke Needle and Thread Club. Tickets are only $1 each and can be purchased by visiting, emailing or calling OPS. The drawing in is November.
