We invite you to join the docent team at Independence Seaport
Museum, one of the nation's premier maritime museums and one of
Philadelphia's top tourist destinations. The Seaport is located on
Penn's Landing on the Delaware River, a short walk from the Liberty
Bell and easily reachable from the tri-state area off Exit 20 of I-95
and public transportation.

Volunteer your time and skills in
the Education Department or Curatorial Department; helping out with
special events or in the J. Welles Henderson Archives and Library;
working in the Seaport's boat-building shop, Workshop on the Water (see below); or on the Museum's two National Historic Landmark ships, the Spanish-American War Cruiser Olympia and the World War II Submarine Becuna.

Consider
joining Independence Seaport Museum's dynamic group of volunteers and
staff members dedicated to educating the public about the region's
maritime heritage. We have openings for both weekday and weekend
volunteers. Training is provided.

Our docents are a highly
valued, integral part of the Seaport team, are invited to all Museum
openings and special events, and have a lot of fun!
