Job description

About PAFA
Founded in 1805, the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts (PAFA) is America's first art museum and art school. With a world-class collection of American art and a vibrant community of working artists, PAFA occupies a unique place in the cultural landscape of Philadelphia and the nation. Docents help bring this legacy to life by connecting visitors to art, artists, and the creative process.
Position Summary
We are seeking passionate and engaging docent volunteers to serve as museum educators and ambassadors. Docents lead tours, spark conversations, and help visitors of all ages experience art in meaningful ways.
Much like the docents at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, Barnes Foundation, and Woodmere, PAFA docents receive training in art history and interpretive techniques. What sets PAFA apart is our dual identity as both a museum and an art school - docents interpret not only the nation's artistic past, but also the living practices of artists working in our studios today.
Responsibilities
  • Lead inquiry-based tours for school groups, families, adults, and special visitors.
  • Share PAFA's history, collection, and exhibitions with warmth, clarity, and inclusivity.
  • Foster dialogue and encourage diverse perspectives in the galleries.
  • Adapt presentations to different audiences and learning styles.
  • Participate in training sessions on art history, teaching strategies, and accessibility.
  • Stay current with PAFA's exhibitions, collections, and educational programs.
  • Support special events and community engagement activities as needed.
Qualifications
  • Passion for art, history, and engaging with people.
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills.
  • Comfort with public speaking and group facilitation.
  • Reliability and professionalism in schedule and conduct.
  • Prior teaching, museum, or customer service experience is a plus, but not required.
  • Willingness to attend required training sessions and commit to leading tours.
Commitment
  • Minimum of 2 tours per month, with additional availability during peak exhibition and school tour seasons.
  • Training provided at no cost; ongoing professional development opportunities available.
Benefits of Volunteering
  • Invitations to docent gatherings, lectures, and professional development workshops.
  • Opportunity to be part of Philadelphia's vibrant cultural and museum community.
  • The personal reward of helping visitors connect to the transformative power of art.
