This wholly original art exhibition features the exuberant works of 70+ inspired, intuitive artists including: Scott Weaver's 100,000 toothpick wonder,"Rolling Through The Bay;" Adolf Wölfli's intricate mandala-like works; spherical sculptures of artists who are sight-impaired; the micro dot sock-thread embroideries of Ray Materson; and so much more!

Docent Program at AVAM

Learn more about visionary art and artists by volunteering to be a tour guide for the American Visionary Art Museum. The Docent Program is an important branch of our educational programming. Lead groups through our permanent and rotating exhibitions enriching the experience for all of our visitors. As an ambassador to the museum you can enhance a visit to the museum making it a memorable learning experience.

Docents will have opportunities to preview exhibitions, meet artists and have access to our library. We will have monthly training sessions to help you get to know our artists and become familiar with their art and stories.

Depending on your availability, we will contact you when groups request a docent-led tour, or you can schedule regular times to be available for visitors in the galleries. For more information or to find out about our next training session, contact Felice Cleveland: felice@avam.org or (410) 244-1900 x232.
