Volunteer Educator Program

Volunteer educators provide an invaluable service in advancing the Museum’s role as a vibrant community center where residents and tourists explore the nature of creativity, learn from the past, and are inspired to consider the world in which they live.

Looking for a fun and fulfilling way to make a difference in your community? Leading group tours as a volunteer educator is a rewarding and wonderful way to share your love of art with students, children, and adults. Volunteer educators give tours to Museum visitors, primarily for school-aged and student groups but also for groups of all ages, from across the country and around the world.

The Education staff provides ongoing volunteer educator trainings, which include exclusive previews of new exhibitions and behind-the-scenes discussions with Museum curators, artists, scholars, and other special guests. Volunteer educators also have the opportunity to visit local artists’ studios and cultural attractions.
