Needs From: Barrington Area Volunteer Connection

The Barrington's White House docent volunteer group provides support for our 3rd Thursday Art Night Out series, Fourth of July Open House, Holiday Open House, and the Historic Tea held in the spring.

Docents also educate the community on the history and importance of Barrington's White House. Many members of the docent volunteer group wear period costumes when attending select events. 

The Barrington's White House group of hospitality volunteers provide support at all cultural events throughout the Fall, Spring, and Summer seasons.

For each cultural event, typically held on Thursday evenings and Sunday afternoons, four to six individuals from our volunteer group are scheduled. Duties include greeting, ticket sales and check-in, directing patrons, answering questions, helping with refreshments, and light clean up at the end of the event.

Volunteers are asked to arrive one hour prior to the start of the event, and stay 30 minutes after it ends. Typically volunteers enjoy the performance once check-in duties are complete.

Volunteers are scheduled on a first come, first serve basis for each event. Volunteers are encouraged to volunteer as much as their schedule allows.
