Monthly Art Docent Trainings

Jan 14 - Mar 19

Free

Are you interested in leading tours of museum exhibitions for all ages and abilities? MAM's education team provides the necessary tools, skills, and practice to generate discussion and deepen the viewing experience for everyone. All trainings are appropriate for both new and returning docents.
Training includes an orientation to MAM's inquiry-based interpretive strategy and an in-depth look at exhibitions. To lead tours at MAM docents must attend at least one training, shadow one tour, and be shadowed for one tour.
Docents are valued volunteers and receive a complementary membership for working six or more hours a year. Membership includes a 10% discount on classes, workshops, and bookstore purchases, as well as invitations to member-only events.
An Information Meeting begins at noon Jan. 14, with monthly training sessions from noon-1:30 p.m. Feb. 13, March 19 and April 20.
