Love history and want to learn to work at a museum? We have the perfect opportunity. Our volunteer tour guides help share Northern Vermont's fascinating history and tell the story of Alexander Lucius Twilight, the first African-American to earn a baccalaureate from an American college or university. The people you meet by giving tours are some of the most interesting and you’ll find the museum more fascinating each time you lead a group through!
