About our Docents

Docents are ambassadors for our exhibitions. They are knowledgeable guides who share the history of individual objects and artists, inspirational stories, and behind-the-scenes anecdotes as you explore the galleries.

The Museum staff and volunteers work to make BRAHM's exhibition tours educational, engaging, and fun! Ready for a private group tour? Contact Kayla Reische at ed_outreach@blowingrockmuseum.org with group size and type to schedule a tour.

We support our docents with ample training to build their confidence in leading tours.

Training typically begins in late fall and continues through the winter, with both in-person and remote options available. Docent-led tours are offered year-round, with the busiest season being summer and early fall.

Ready to be a Docent? Contact Kayla Reische at (828) 295-9099 ext. 3014 or ed_outreach@BlowingRockMuseum.org to sign up today.
