Volunteer docents give guided tours of Meadow Brook Hall to guests. They have taken docent training and have in-depth knowledge of the Hall and collection. To become a docent a person must be trained and certified.

This is a group of volunteers who help with hosting our special events, weddings, and large programs. They have some knowledge of the Hall and feel comfortable interacting with our guests.

The Museum Shop and Front Desk are open every day and these volunteers are our front line of customer service. The Shop volunteer sells tour tickets and tidies merchandise while the Front Desk volunteer greets guests, direct them to their appropriate location and answers phones.

This is a group of men who help preserve the Hall by doing maintenance projects and fundraising. They meet monthly and visit other historic sites throughout Michigan. There is a small membership fee to join this group.

Plaster & Parducci

Please join us for our annual Lunch & Learn; a fundraiser to support the preservation of Meadow Brook Hall.

Jennifer Baross is a board member of Preservation Wayne, Detroit's foremost preservation organization, and has been researching and lecturing on the work of Corrado Parducci since 2009. Sher is an accomplished photographer and designer who uses these talents to tell the story of Parducci, Detroit's premier architectural sculptor. Parducci was revered by many architects who wanted his work for their most exclusive projects - both in Detroit and nationally. He is responsible for designing and articulating the architectural motifs on nearly 400 buildings in the metropolitan area, including the renowned sculpted plaster ceiling in the Christopher Wren dining room of Meadow Brook Hall.

Lunch & Learn is an annual fundraiser from the MBH Squires; money raised by this dedicated troupe of volunteers goes to assist in the ongoing preservation and maintenance of The Hall.

A box lunch will be served at 11:30 am, with the lecture commencing at noon. Tours of The Hall will also be available following the lecture.
