Delaware & Lehigh National Heritage Corridor

The National Canal Museum (NCM), a program of the Delaware & Lehigh National Heritage Corridor, is searching for volunteers to serve as docents (docent: person who acts as a guide, typically on a voluntary basis). Docents do not have to have experience giving museum tours, but should be interested in the transportation and industrial history of the region, enjoy talking with the public, and should enjoy learning new things! Docents can choose from working in the NCM gift shop, greeting visitors, and/or providing tours of the museum to visitors. The minimum age for volunteers is 16.

• The National Canal Museum opens on June 3, 2017 and is open weekends only until June 11.
• Starting on June 14, 2017, the National Canal Museum is open Wednesdays through Sundays until October 1, 2017.
• From October 7, 2017 until October 29, 2017, the National Canal Museum is open on weekends.
• The National Canal Museum hours are 11:30 am - 4:30 pm on each day it is open
