Grace Cathedral

Nestled on the top of Nob Hill San Francisco, Grace Cathedral is a beacon of architectural magnificence and spiritual solace. Its Gothic revival architecture, stained glass windows, labyrinths, and art installations draw visitors globally. Yet, beyond its grandeur lies a mission of community engagement and cultural enrichment. To realize this mission, we are making an appeal for more docents to illuminate the cathedral’s wonders and deepen visitors’ experiences.

Docents are the guardians of Grace Cathedral’s narrative and play a pivotal role in fostering connections between the past and present, the sacred and secular. Their expertise transforms mere sightseeing into encounters with history, art, and spirituality. They enrich the visitor experience and foster a deeper appreciation for the cathedral’s significance.

The invitation to become a docent is extended to those who feel called to share in Grace Cathedral’s mission. Grace Congregants and church members from the Diocese are highly encouraged to apply, but this appeal is also for the residents of San Francisco and beyond. We simply ask that you commit to at least two tours each month after you receive training.  No prior experience is required; only a passion for learning, a desire to connect with others, and comfort speaking to groups are needed. Our docent training program covers the three types of one-hour tours currently offered. 

Space available for these docent training dates, April 30 1:30 – 3 pm and May 30 1:30 – 3 pm.
