Sponsorship
Is your company looking for a great way to engage the community?
DCP hosts free, inclusive and family friendly programming throughout the year including 5 Food Truck Rodeos, PLAYlist, an 8 week summer concert series and our children’s independence day parade. These events draw thousands of people to the park and are made possible through corporate sponsors!
Volunteer
Want to get in the trenches and get your hands dirty?
Durham Central Park would be nothing without its great volunteer corps! There are many volunteer opportunities throughout the year-from monthly park cleanups to helping out at our events. We would love for you to join us and we can even accommodate volunteer groups.
Host a Party
Love to entertain and bring people together for fun, food, and drink?
Each fall, we hold a series of fundraising dinners and parties called Parties For The Park. Individuals, groups and businesses host dinner parties to benefit the park-raising 30% of DCP’s annual operating budget. We are always looking for folks who are interested in hosting.
Not up for hosting? You can, of course, just attend them as well.
