Current Opportunities:

     
  
National Museum of American Jewish Military History Docent
The National Museum of American Jewish Military History (NMAJMH) is seeking docents to lead walk–in visitors as well as pre–arranged tour groups, of both children and adults, through a variety of exhibits that explain and examine the role of Jews in American military history. The NMAJMH is affiliated with the Jewish War Veterans of the USA, and is dedicated to the mission of preserving and creating public awareness of the contributions of Jewish Americans in the Armed Forces. A contribution of your time is an immeasurable gift, and a great asset, to our organization.
We will provide training, and any necessary materials, before you begin your time commitment. It is recommended that our docents have some ability interacting with, and speaking to, the general public. Our days of operation are Monday–Friday 9am to 5pm; and we are happy to work around your schedule. In exchange for the donation of your time, we offer honorary Museum membership, a copy of all exhibition catalogues, and an invitation to all exhibition openings, lectures and special events, as well as the annual volunteer appreciation lunch.  For more information call 1-888-246-1818 or email.
