The Wing Luke Museum of the Asian Pacific American Experience docents are an integral part of our Museum. Each year our highly trained docents guide over 7,000 students through featured exhibitions. Docents enjoy the opportunity of interacting with visitors through shared history of Asian Americans, games, artifacts, stories, crafts and interactive media.
Docents are trained on topics including; the history of Asian Americans, our permanent and featured exhibitions, group management, and tips on touring diverse audiences. Docents complete training sessions and commit to presenting two tours each week. |

*Docent: The Museum's tour guides are trained by the Education Manager. Training starts in the fall, and then all docents continue training throughout the school year. Newcomers will be taught touring techniques, plus learn about Asian American art, history and
immigration to the Northwest through programs and lectures at the Museum. Docents should be able to commit three to four hours per week once their training period is through. |
