Local history buffs, Audubon enthusiasts, and anyone interested in becoming a Doc Thomas House volunteer docent are invited to an informal, interactive seminar to learn more about our 1932 Historic Doc Thomas House public tours and the colorful stories that comprise our chapter's history.

The engaging afternoon will be hosted by TAS/DTH Historian and Board member Dan Jones, M.S.Ed.; Education & Advocacy Director Stephanie Clements, Ph.D.; and Doc Thomas House Docent & Master Gardener Steve Rawlins, M.S., who will explore four main topics: All About Audubon, 1785-1976; Doc Thomas & His House, 1887-1976; A “How To” Tour of the Doc Thomas House; and All Together Now – TAS & DTH 1976-Present. Their presentation will include photographs, artifacts and a walk-and-talk tour of the Doc Thomas House and Steinberg Nature Center grounds. There will be a 15-minute break during the seminar.

PRIMER: The Doc Thomas House, designed and built in 1931-32, is an authentic relic of Old Florida and a recognized architectural gem, both locally and nationally. It was first designated an historic site by Dade County on its 50th birthday in 1982; it was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 2014 and earned Florida Heritage Site status in 2016.
