Perks
One of the major perks of volunteering at GPAC and The Grove is that you have an opportunity to watch our performances! We cannot always guarantee a designated theater seat, but we encourage you to find a spot where you can prioritize your assignments while also enjoying the show.
Parking Details
You may park in the parking lot in front of the building. If you are able, please park in the north east corner of the lot so that patrons and guests with limited mobility have access to the closer parking spaces.
