About this Opportunity

Are you good with people and interested in "space/science stuff"? A "docent" is a volunteer that acts as a guide for the Discovery Center Museum gallery. Docents introduce artifacts and exhibits to visitors, answer visitors' questions, assist with school and public visitation groups, and overall act as a steward of the museum labs and gallery. To be successful in this role you must be friendly and enjoy working with people of all age groups, abilities, and backgrounds. Having an interest in space is recommended, but if you enjoy STEAM in general you will thrive here! An important factor to keep in mind for this position: you need to be able to learn, retain and relate information effectively (the information will be provided to you).
