Join Durham Wayfinders!
When arriving for an event at DPAC, guests are welcomed by members of the Durham Wayfinders. Wayfinders help guests navigate from the nearby parking areas, distribute Broadway programs, and welcome guests at DPAC’s entry doors and entry lobby areas. This group of almost 250 are part of a City of Durham volunteer program where members share their time and talents in the spirit of helping everyone feel welcome at DPAC.
