Share your love of art
The Burchfield Penney's docent program includes 60 active volunteers. The docent program recruits for new volunteers biennially; the next class will begin in 2013.
These highly trained docents provide tours of the museum to various audiences, including students of all ages (preschool through college), corporate groups and social organizations. The tours provide opportunities for visitors to discuss and learn about the art on exhibition.
Since the opening of our new museum in November 2008, tens of thousands of visitors have been on interactive museum tours. Important relationships have been established with the Alzheimer’s Association, Buffalo State College, Campus West Elementary School and Elmwood Franklin School.
Currently, we do not have any upcoming docent courses. If you wish to be notifiied about the 2013 docent recruitment, contact the Burchfield Penney at 716-878-3156 or by email.
