Tour Program
The tour program offers volunteers a variety of opportunities to assist in creating a special experience for our visitors. Each season Hildene hosts approximately 25,000 visitors. Volunteers can help out once a week with a morning or afternoon shift, with training provided, as a main house docent, tour guide, van driver, fresh flower arranger, or with Museum Shop sales, Visitor Center ticket sales, or special events support.
