Volunteer Opportunities

Be a Part of Overture Center

We simply couldn't do what we do without the hundreds of dedicated individuals who donate their time and talents to support Overture programs, welcome visitors and represent us in the community. When you become a member of Overture, you become eligible to volunteer as an Overture Friend. It's a great way to get involved in the arts, have fun and make friends.

What can you do as an Overture Friend volunteer?

Usher - Welcome audience members, take tickets, hand our programs and provide the best in customer service.
Provide Information Services - Greet visitors at our Information Booth and serve as an ambassador for Overture and downtown.
Be a tour guide - Relate our fascinating stories and share the excitement of Overture with children and adults.
Assist with community events and education projects - Assist in a wide variety of tasks including staffing tables and greeting visitors at festivals, community events and residencies.

Are there any special benefits to volunteering?

All Overture Friend volunteers receive these benefits. Additional benefits are based on your annual membership level.
