Do you love museums? Do you enjoy storytelling and interacting with people?

Rokeby Museum in Ferrisburgh is looking for volunteers to become Tour Guides! As we emerge from the COVID seasons, and from conservation work completed on our Historic House, we are proud to introduce a new guided tour, which will engage visitors with our pastoral property, outbuildings and the interior of the Robinson's Historic Homestead.

The Rokeby story connects Art, Abolition, and Agriculture across more than two centuries through four consecutive generations of the Robinson family who lived and worked there. From commercial farming to the Underground Railroad, to a generation of artists, to welcoming Vermont's first tourists in what is now a time-honored tradition, Rokeby encapsulates so many aspects of our State's heritage. Come be a part of our story. We are open seasonally from May-October.

If you are interested in becoming a Rokeby Tour Guide, please visit our website and fill out the Volunteer inquiry form. Rokeby will be hosting a virtual mixer on March 22 at 6:30 for Tour Guides new and old. Folks interested in becoming a tour guide are encouraged to join to learn more about what tour guiding at Rokeby entails! Staff will be available after the virtual mixer to answer questions. Contact Joan at jgorman@rokeby.org if you would like to attend.
