Museum Volunteers
The Albany
Institute relies on volunteers to help with educational
programs, special events, and administrative support.
Our
volunteers are involved in many aspects of the Albany
Institute and are essential to our success. Please contact
Kathy Vonk,
Development Coordinator, at (518) 463-4478, ext. 412, or at
vonkk@albanyinstitute.org for more information.
Volunteer Docents
Docents provide programs for K-12th grade school groups, lead
gallery tours for adult groups and contribute assistance for special
events. Through gallery interpretation and programming, docents make
the objects and exhibitions in the museum relevant to visitors.
Participants who are specifically interested in the docent program may
contact the Museum Education Office at (518) 463-4478 or
education@albanyinstitute.org
for more information.
