The University of Alaska Museum of the North is looking for volunteer docents for its school tour programs this semester. Docents receive free training in how to use the museum’s exhibits and hands-on collection to teach students about science, culture and art. No experience is necessary.

Docents commit to leading elementary school class tours one morning a week. Credit is available through the University of Alaska Fairbanks.

For more information or to register for the training, call 907-474-5360 or email museum.education@uaf.edu.
