VBMA Docents

VBMA docents are specially trained volunteers who interact with visitors in formal and informal engagements to share information and guide exploration of exhibitions and artworks on display.

We’ve extended the application deadline to become a VBMA docent to Wednesday, April 30th! Docents play a vital role in connecting visitors with our exhibitions and collections. If you’re passionate about art and education, we encourage you to apply. Please contact Angela Ameling at aameling@vbmuseum.org for more information and to receive application materials.
