Our Tour Guides

Delightful Dave
Delightful Dave grew up in Safety Harbor, around the corner from WhimZeyland. He has spent his life watching the art environment evolve. Today, he's grateful to be part of the SHAMc Collective as an artist, educational assistant, and WhimZeyand tour guide. When you book a tour with Dave, you’ll get an insider’s perspective shaped by years of immersion, involvement, and genuine love for this community art environment.


Patti
Patti first volunteered during SHAMc's SongFest 2015, and she’s been part of the magic ever since. She spent more than 25 years in the paramilitary professional world, and it was during this time that SHAMc became her joyful balance: a creative happy place. She has recently stepped into the role of Volunteer Coordinator at SHAMc. Join Patti on a tour and experience SHAMc through the eyes of someone who loves it deeply and serves it wholeheartedly.
