Preservation Durham is in search of volunteers to work as docents for this year's home tour!

2 and 4-hour shifts are available for either or both of the tour dates (May 16th-17th). We try to accommodate multiple volunteers who would like to work at the home together. Every volunteer gets a free home tour ticket to enjoy the tour outside of their shift! If you are interested, you can fill out the Google Form in the link in our bio!
