Make someone’s holiday visit to the Concord Museum’s Family Trees exhibit fun and enjoyable this year!  Each December the Concord Museum puts on Family Trees: A Celebration of Children’s Literature. It is a month-long celebration in which the Museum’s galleries are filled with fanciful trees of all shapes and sizes, decorated with original ornaments inspired by acclaimed children’s storybooks and contemporary picture book favorites.

We are looking for enthusiastic people who love working with families and young children in a fun, fast-paced environment. Interpreters will orient guests and welcome families, see that individuals, groups, and families have a positive experience, answer questions, and oversee the safety of the museum collection as families enjoy the decorated trees.
