Docent Amy Blaylock - Period Costume

Lead visitors on a tour through time…
We are looking for volunteer docents to guide visitors through the house, grounds and outbuildings. We conduct 6 regular tours each day (3 on Sunday) and also conduct group tours for adults and children. From time to time we host special events to benefit the site and ask for volunteers for these occasions. Each docent is required to conduct at least two tours per month—each tour takes approximately one hour.

 

Volunteer opportunities include: Docent, Garden Guild, and Special Events Host

  • You will meet wonderful visitors from all over the country and the world.
  • You will be part of a fun and friendly group of volunteers and have the opportunity to participate in activities scheduled just for volunteers.
  • We provide a docent manual and training.
  • Period costume is available but not required.
