Day in the Life of a Docent

Share your passion for art by volunteering at SJMA! Whether you wish to be trained to give gallery tours as part of the Docent Council, can’t wait to inspire kids with art in Bay Area classrooms through our Let’s Look at Art program, or love the atmosphere in the Museum Store, we have a volunteer opportunity for you. 

Our volunteers play an important role in the life of the Museum. They meet on a regular basis, have fun social events, and participate in other local art- and non-art-related outings, too! 

Attend an informative and interactive gathering where you will learn about SJMA’s volunteer opportunities. Museum staff and current volunteers will be on hand to answer questions about the many ways that you can make a difference by supporting the Museum’s program goals.
