Become an art docent – a fun way to volunteer in your child’s classroom

What is an art docent? A school volunteer who teaches a subject that kids really enjoy – art! Woodmoor has a team of dedicated volunteers who make sure students receive an arts education, in addition to the standard curriculum, by teaching an art lesson once a month. Becoming an art docent is easy, requires a small time commitment and no previous experience is necessary.

 

  • Not an artist? No problem. The students are the ones making the art.
  • Not a teacher? We’ve got you covered. You can choose from a dozen prepared lesson plans and projects. And, we will have training for all new art docents, so you know how to prepare and what to expect.
  • No free time? Don’t worry, about 1 1/2 hours a month is all it takes. Art docents teach once a month, and the lessons usually last 30-60 minutes.
The kids love art time and will be excited to see you walk in the classroom. And, you’ll be surprised how fun it is to help the kids create masterpieces. We hope you become the newest art docent!
