VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES

Volunteers to Venture is as water to the fish. We need volunteers to exist. The demands of a theatre that produces more than 15 productions a year are HUGE...well beyond that of our payroll budget. Therefore, we rely on the generous gift of time and talent from volunteers, just like you. Do you have to have a specific trade or skill set to volunteer at Venture? Absolutely not! Much of what we need help with can be done by those "unskilled", and we're always happy to provide on the job training! Areas of opportunity exist in:

Front of House - box office & concessions

Production - set construction, light/sound operations, stage manager, costumes

Facilities - basic maintenance, clean-up

Youth Education - teacher assistant, Venture Into Schools assistant, Summer School assistant

Publicity - hanging poster, distribute flyers

And it's a fun place to volunteer! Come hang out with us. Copy and paste the form below into word, fill it out and send it in to us. We'd love to have you as part of our family.
