For Students

Docent Program

The Docent Program is a volunteer opportunity for students aged 10 and older. Docents develop public presentation skills and historical knowledge while serving as educational assistants in the museum buildings. The program was established in 2008 under the guidance of former Curator Robyn Lode.

Docents become real ambassadors for the museum’s collections — learning the stories behind the exhibits well enough to share them with visitors of all ages.

Ally, Mariah, and Riley have been Junior Docents since the very beginning of the program.
