Docent Training Meet & Greet

Join a dedicated community of docents at Holocaust Museum Houston. As a docent, you will be helping to educate students, teachers, community groups, and adults that visit the Museum for a tour. Most importantly, docents help to tell the stories of our Holocaust Survivor community to new generations. Those interested in Holocaust history, art, education, and human rights are encouraged to attend this Docent Training Meet and Greet.

You might be a retired teacher looking to utilize your talent and still be able to teach on your own schedule. Perhaps you are a history major looking to gain experience in the Museum field. Whoever you are, your participation and commitment to the Holocaust Museum Houston Docent Program will be vital to carrying out the Museum’s mission. Bilingual Spanish speakers are a plus as HMH is fully bilingual in English and Spanish.

The Museum has many docent opportunities available, including days, evenings, and weekends.

Requirements include: 40 hours of volunteer service and a 36-hour training class comprised of evening online lectures and practicums, tour shadowing, and certification.

Next Docent Training begins July 24, 2023
