535 North Fifth Street San Jose, California, United States of America

Date: July 21, 2012

Time: noon – 3 p.m.


"Being a docent at the Japanese American Museum (in San Jose) is very rewarding. Not only do you share our history with interested visitors but you learn facts and stories from them as well. Many of our visitors were interned or had relatives who were interned.

As a docent, you have the opportunity to expand their knowledge about American history and to use the knowledge to increase understanding, compassion and a commitment to civil rights.

There are no minimum time requirements for volunteering as a docent; we appreciate any time you can provide. Please join our volunteer staff and open the eyes, minds and hearts of you and your guests.

Docent training will he held on Saturday July 21st from noon to 3 pm at JAMsj. Existing docents and prospective docents are welcome to attend. For information, contact Rich Saito at (408) 294-3838 or email docent_training@jamsj.org ."
