* Docents – Volunteers will lead student and adult tours through the Museum. A 20-session training program will begin in September to prepare Docents before the museum opens.
The museum is no longer accepting applications to be part of the Docent program upon the Museum's opening.
***************************************************************************
Due to the overwhelming response from the community, the deadline for volunteer application submission will be September 15, 2008.
We will continue to accept all volunteer requests and inform all interested community members when future training sessions will be held. In order to maintain the highest quality of service, training sessions are required before volunteers can work in the new museum.
Please do not hesitate to contact the Volunteer office with any questions at volunteer@hmfi.org. Thank you for your support and patience.
