Job description

Occupational Summary
Creative Discovery Museum is one of the top children's museums in the country due to engaging and enthusiastic staff who meet all guests with exceptional service. The role of Museum Educators is to provide an outstanding experience for all museum guests by ensuring a safe, fun, and orderly environment. At CDM we inspire all children to explore, innovate, create, and play through our exhibits and programs.

7. Facilitate engaging value-added Programming for general admission guests as scheduled (Story Times, Walk-Ups, Kitchen Lessons, Science Demonstrations, etc.)
