Job Fair for Tour Guides and Docents

Are you looking to hire guides, docents, or volunteers for tours, museums, or historic sites? Or are you a history and culture enthusiast seeking a position? The Association of Philadelphia Tour Guides (APT) is organizing its first ever job fair on Saturday, February 24, scheduled for 1:30-4:30 pm in Old City. The event will be held in conjunction with the APT yearly training program (Feb. 22-25). Special thanks to the event's gold sponsor, Visit Philly!

With the hole left by guides and docents who did not return to their positions post-Covid and the influx of tourists expected in the next few years with the semiquincentennial and other important anniversaries, there is a great need for tour guides and other historic interpreters in Philadelphia. Whether you are an employer or employee, the APT job fair aims to give you the best chance for success.
