Do you have a positive and enthusiastic personality? Do you enjoy talking with people from around the world? Would you like to share your passion for Lincoln Park and the natural world?

The Lincoln Park Conservancy and the Chicago Park District are seeking volunteers to interact with visitors to the Lincoln Park Conservatory and Gardens and the Alfred Caldwell Lily Pool in Lincoln Park, Chicago. Volunteer Greeters and Docents welcome visitors, assist with questions and directions, and share their knowledge of these National Historic Landmarks. Additionally, Docents give both formal and casual tours of the sites.

Beginning February 29, 2020, new docents will attend training on six Saturday mornings with experts on plants, the art of interpretation, architectural design, and the history of Lincoln Park. Greeters attend a one-day training on March 21, 2020.

Deadline to register is Friday, February 21.
