About this Event
Are you a local history buff? Do you like meeting new people and making new friends from all over the world? Do you love to tell stories? Is keeping the “Spirit of Detroit" alive important to you? Are you looking for a fun volunteering opportunity that makes a real difference in the world around you? If so, you should consider volunteering with Preservation Detroit’s 2025 Tour Program!
For more than two decades, Preservation Detroit has been the “go to” group in preserving and promoting the amazing history of Detroit’s growth and cultural heritage through its award-winning Walking Tours Program. Our volunteer tour guides lead tours of historic districts in Detroit, including Downtown, Eastern Market, and the Cultural Center and Midtown, as well as specialty tours, including our always popular Cemetery and Theatre tours. You can be a significant part of this as a volunteer, so join us!!
“Sounds like fun, but I've never done something like this before.”
Don’t worry, we'll train you. You’ll learn a lot and have a great time along the way!
"Are you accepting volunteers for other roles?"
Absolutely! We have volunteer opportunities available for special events, historical research, and archival work.
Want to learn more? Get started by coming to our 2025 Tour Program Launch and Volunteer Sign-up on April 5, 2025. We'll tell you all about our tours, the different volunteer opportunities we offer, and you'll get to meet and talk with our tour guides, shepherds and support staff who have been with us for years. It's all free and, while we'd love to have you join our team, there's no obligation to sign-up after this meeting. RSVP to save your spot! Here are the details...
