Teen Docents
Students ages 14 to 18βAre you passionate about art and interested in working in a museum setting? Bellevue Arts Museum's Teen Docent Program is perfect for teens looking to engage with art, practice public speaking skills, and learn from artists and museum professionals.
The program requires a five month commitment from participants, as they will meet every Wednesday, starting February 28, from 4-5:30 pm., and then put their new skills to work in the spring. Once trained, the teen docents will be on duty in the galleries to engage our visitors with the artwork in BAM's exhibitions. This volunteer position counts toward high school community service hours, and participants can earn between 25β40 volunteer hours.
Applications for BAM's award-winning Teen Docent program are open for the 2024 school year, we are limiting the class to 20 teens. This program requires an application. See the link below.
