Will Barnet has carved a very special niche for herself. He creates colorful provocative figures that begin as casts taken directly from his subjects. The Museum of Art – Florida’s docents are a diverse group of trained volunteers who share a passion for art and the community. They are active,enthusiastic,imaginative and knowledgeable. Historically,a docent was a tour guide who talked while visitors listened.

Today,docents do so much more than just talk. At the Museum docents help visitors of all ages discover the world of art by creating conversation-based tours centered around the art. They provide a vital link between what is displayed in the Museum and how visitors respond to what they see.
