Docents
Serving the Village for over 30 years!

​CHS Docents support and carry out the educational mission of the Corrales Historical Society by their organization and participation in events for the Corrales community and by providing tours of the Old San Ysidro Church. Docents do not need a background in history only an interest in learning about the history of the area. Docent meetings are held six times a year in March, April, May, September, October and November, which Docents are required to attend. Docent meetings often include a speaker or program. The Docent luncheon, Holiday dinner, or field trips to interesting locations are planned during months the Docents don’t have meetings.

CHS Docents are required to:

• Be a member of the Corrales Historical Society
• Welcome visitors to the Old Church one Saturday per year during the summer months (times to be determined)
• Participate in CHS activities, as needed
  • Heritage Day in the Spring
  • Harvest Festival-Heart of Corrales Fiesta in the Fall
• Attend monthly meetings
  
  

We always welcome new docents. Membership is a great way to make new friends and learn about the history of the Old San Ysidro Church, the Village of Corrales, and New Mexico. For further information, email the CHS Docents at [email protected]
