A League of Extraordinary Individuals
Within the museum lurks an unusual evil…. No, wait. In a museum there are a remarkable number of
superheroes. Without them, most museums
would be unable to maintain daily operations.
These are the volunteers who perform all kinds of duties throughout the
museum, from giving tours, to running a gift shop, or maintaining a
garden. These people make up a League of
Extraordinary Individuals.
Join Lacey Villiva, the Education and Outreach Assistant at
Carlyle House, as she discusses ways to build and sustain a robust Docent
corps. In the nearly two years since she
started at Carlyle House, Lacey has been the manager of the Carlyle House
Docents, which has more than 70 members.
She will explore the things that have worked for Carlyle House, make
suggestions on what may work for other museums, and take questions and
facilitate troubleshooting discussions during her session on Tuesday, from
9:30-10:30.
