Oysterponds Historical: Join Our Docents — 3 Hour Shifts During Exhibit Hours: Village, School & Webb Houses

Docents are OHS’s ambassadors, greeting visitors and answering questions at our historical buildings that are open to the public on a regular basis during the summer months.

Village House and Webb House—in addition to being period-furnished throughout with significant items from the OHS collection—feature exhibition galleries upstairs in each of the buildings’ former bedrooms. And, this year, reknown artist Barbara Bloom’s “The Weather” exhibition will occupy the Old Point Schoolhouse.

Docents volunteer for three-hour shifts throughout the summer during exhibition hours (Fridays 2-5pm; Saturdays 11am-5pm; and Sundays 2-5pm). Village House opens to the public on Saturday, May 23rd. The Barbara Bloom Exhibition opens in the Old Point Schoolhouse on Sunday, June 7th. Webb House opens on Saturday, June 13th. (Note that the Red Barn is temporarily closed.)
