Certified Paleontology Museum Tour Guide

If you love dinosaurs and enjoy sharing your love of dinosaurs, we have the perfect role for you! We are currently seeking folks to join the Museum crew as volunteer Paleontology Tour Guides. Our Certified Paleontology Interpreters connect curious museum guests to the extraordinary fossils of the Morrison-Golden area through personalized tour experiences.
