On Friday, March 3, we will initiate an Education Day for Bay Area students to learn about San Francisco’s rich past. We will offer school groups tours of the building, interactive activities, and a chance to meet more than a dozen history organizations located in the Bay Area.
We need volunteer docents who will participate in trainings at the Old Mint and then spend that Friday working with kids, chaperones, and teachers.
It is a fun way to learn about the Old Mint and work with kids!
