Museum Service Council

The Museum Service Council volunteers greet museum visitors on the LACMA campus, support LACMA's important visitor survey program, assist with Free Day activities, and act as hosts for various special events.

As a benefit, volunteers receive special invitations to private exhibition tours and other LACMA activities.

The volunteer selection and training process occurs as needed, usually once per year. Please check back in Summer 2026 for more details.

Docent Council

Members of the Docent Council engage with visitors of all ages through guided tours and casual dialogue to make works of art accessible for all.

We are committed to inclusivity, access, and equity, and we believe that the Docent Council should represent the diversity of Los Angeles.

An art background is not required in order to be a docent. Prospective docents should have an interest in learning about art, working with audiences of all ages and backgrounds, and facilitating positive museum experiences.

In addition to working with visitors, docents enjoy an extensive program of continuing education provided by staff members and local experts.

The Docent Council is not currently recruiting new members. To be notified of future application opportunities, please email us at docentcouncil@lacma.org.
