Most important are a love and enthusiasm for art, an eagerness to share your knowledge and excitement with others, and an ability to work well with a wide range of people. Student docents are required to attend eight hours of training each term, complete reading assignments, help to recruit tour groups, and give at least three tours per term to student groups from Dartmouth. Students interested in participating in the Student Docent Program or with questions about the program should contact Lesley Wellman , Curator of Education. Interested students must complete a one-page application and have a short interview. Ten to twelve students will be selected to participate in the program each term.
Preference is given to upperclassmen majoring in related fields.
