The Folger hosts a variety of events, activities, and performances for patrons from the District and around the world, and docents at the Vistors' Desk have the privilege of interacting with all of them. As the face of the Folger, docents assist visitors and answer inquiries. The resources on this page will help you fulfill these functions.
The Folger is open to the public every day except Thanksgiving and Christmas.
Monday–Saturday from 10:00am to 5:00pm
Sunday from 12:00pm to 5:00pm.
The building also opens one hour before ticketed performances and programs.
