All docents go through an intensive 14-week training program before giving their first tour. Once they have graduated from the training program, they continue the learning process by reading books and scientific articles, and attending formal classes and lectures that  are relevant to the Museum's changing exhibits. Docents offer a valuable service to the Museum and its visitors.

We have just completed 2009 docent training. Please check back for updates on 2010's docent training program, or call Susan Dickerson at 994-6611 for more information.
