February 2009

Thank you for your interest in the Columbus Museum of Art docent program. We presently are accepting applications for the next docent class, which will begin training in July 2009.

Our staff and volunteers live by the museum’s mission statement, Great Experiences with Great Art for Everyone. CMA docents are a vital and integral part of the Museum and act as staff extensions for the education department. In essence, every docent’s primary responsibility is facilitating the great experience for our visitors! 

During April, we will be hosting two Docent Class Open Houses: 
Thursday, April 2, 5:30–7:00 pm
And
Tuesday, April 14, 1–2:30 pm
Please RSVP to Amanda.Kepner@cmaohio.org or at 614.629.5947.

We encourage you to discover if CMA’s docent program is the right volunteer opportunity for you. At the open houses, staff and docents will be happy to answer your questions about the program. You also will have the opportunity to take a docent-led tour.
 
I have enclosed a docent position description and an application for the 2009 class. Applications are due to the Education Department by May 15, 2009.   Please complete and return the application to my attention, Cindy M. Foley, Columbus Museum of Art, 480 East Broad Street, Columbus, Ohio 43215. If you have questions, please contact me at 614.629.0360 or cindy.foley@cmaohio.org. 

I thank you for your interest in the museum and look forward to receiving your application.

Sincerely,

Cindy Meyers Foley
Director of Education
