Tour Guide & Docent Job Fair

Love Philly? We need you in 2026! 

We don’t just need workers - we need ambassadors. If you know your way around a cheesesteak and can explain the significance of 1776 (or 1976!), we want to meet you. Visit with over 20 companies looking to fill both paid and volunteer tour guide or docent positions. 

Friday January 23 
11AM to 2PM
Parkway Central Free Library, 1901 Vine St, Philadelphia, PA 

Special thanks to the Free Library for their sponsorship! Admission for job applicants is FREE but pre-registration is required. Deadline to register is January 21.
