Volunteering & Employment

 

 

Volunteer Opportunities

The success of the Carroll Arts Center depends on significant support from volunteers.  We welcome the assistance of volunteers of all ages and abilities and our pleased that we have a significant group of people to draw from. 

 

To facilitate communication with this large group of volunteers, we send out a monthly volunteer bulletin via e-mail.  This communication details all of the volunteer needs for that month.  Readers can simply hit ‘reply’ to let us know when they are available to help.  The majority of the tasks listed involve helping at theatre performances, working at the concession stand, taking tickets or helping at special events.  We also list opportunities for assisting with classes, summer camp counselors, theatre interns, mailings and annual “clean up/painting” days at the Arts Center.

 

If you would like to be included in this E-Vol list, please send your e-mail address to Executive Director Sandy Oxx

 Sandy@CarrollCountyArtsCouncil.org

 

If you do not use e-mail and would prefer to be on the volunteer phone list, Sandy can be reached at 410/848-7272 and would be happy to take your contact information.

In advance, thank you for your interest in volunteering at the Carroll Arts Center.
