What you can do... Front of House Teams take
care of the audience. They welcome people, check coats, and assist people during
the performance. FOH volunteers are the hosts for the Yukon Arts Centre. Security
volunteers ensure the safety of our audience and protect the building. Box
Office volunteers help with the business end of front of house management.
They get people into their seats as smoothly as possible. Bar and Concession
volunteers serve food and beverages to customers. Art Gallery Monitors
keep the gallery open. Without them, it would be difficult to open the gallery
during performance evenings and on the weekend. These volunteers help viewers
enjoy exhibitions and protect the artwork. Tech Crew volunteers run
the theatre. These volunteers take up positions as stage managers, production
crew, lighting technicians and sound technicians. They work directly with visiting
artists and production staff. The Yukon Arts Centre is also looking for
gallery, art education and marketing volunteers. |
What
our volunteers say... "It's a great place, I really like being a part
of the energy that happens here during performances." "I love
the peacefulness of the gallery... just being in here surrounded by all the artwork...
it makes me feel good." "I've been volunteering since the place
opened... its just part of my life." "My kids are in music and
drama... being a volunteer is just something I do to support the Centre so it
can provide learning opportunities for my kids". "The learning
opportunities are fantastic. Running the light board for a big show can be a pretty
steep challenge." "I'm picking up production management skills
that will help me in preparing for a new career." "Volunteering
gets me out at night!"
