St Pete Exhibit Docent Registration

ABOUT THE EXHIBIT

In March 2024, St. Pete’s Poynter Park will become a canvas for our international art exhibition, showcasing 50 billboard-sized artworks, each paired with an inspirational quote.

To enrich the visitor experience and provide deeper insights into the displayed artworks for PreK through 12 grade field trip school groups, we rely on dedicated docents (aka experienced guides.) By volunteering, you’ll not only be contributing to our mission, but also gaining valuable experience in Career & Leadership, Community Service, Creative & Artistic endeavors, and Global perspectives. If you have academic or extracurricular requirements in these areas, this role can help you fulfill them.
