Who We Are
Volunteers
Tour of Homes Volunteers:
Historic preservation is more than saving buildings — it’s about revitalizing neighborhoods, curbing urban sprawl, and building vibrant communities. Through advocacy, education, and community events, the QQA brings new life to the places that tell our shared story.
Our biggest volunteer need is for the Spring Tour of Homes, which brings together more than 200 volunteers each year.
Sign up to volunteer for the 60th Tour of Homes: Art and Architecture here!
In addition to the Tour, we also welcome assistance with:
-
Special events
-
Fundraising efforts
-
Research opportunities
