If you have ever enjoyed an Exhibitions Highlights Tour or Bruce Beginnings at the Bruce, you have an idea of what it means to be a Bruce Docent. Docents welcome and engage visitors of all ages through guided tours, school field trips, and special programs. This all-volunteer group has an array of professional backgrounds, and we value people who bring unique viewpoints. All docents participate in regular training sessions that cover a wide array of topics, from curator’s tours of new exhibitions to touring tips and techniques.
The program is currently open to applicants; a new group of docents will start in January 2025. We are specifically interested in candidates who are fluent in both English and Spanish and/or would like to lead science programs for Prek-12 groups.
