Museum Teacher Information Session

The Gardner Museum is looking for curious lifelong learners to join us as Museum Teachers, a paid position leading tours for visitors of all backgrounds. Museum Teachers have an essential role in connecting visitors to the Gardner Museum, its collection, and its changing special exhibitions. Museum Teachers are flexible, visitor-centered, curious educators who are able to meet the needs and interests of a wide range of visitors. They encourage inquiry, close looking, slowing down, making personal connections, and bringing multiple perspectives into interpretation of the Museum and its artworks.

At this information session, you'll meet Museum staff and current Museum Teachers, learn more about the program, participate in small group gallery discussion, learn about the Gardner’s approaches to education and the requirements and benefits of becoming a Museum Teacher. 

Prior teaching experience or art expertise is not required.
