Volunteer with CGOA

If you've ever gone to a CGOA concert or theatrical performance you know that they could never happen without both talented performers onstage and a legion of committed volunteers behind the scenes.

Volunteers at performances often get to see the show for free!

Current Volunteer Needs

It takes more than performers to bring the arts to life. CGOA volunteers are an important part of every production, helping at concerts, behind the scenes, and throughout the season.

Whether you have a few hours to give or want to get more involved, we’d love to have you join us.

Here are some ways you can help:

At Concerts

  • Ushers

  • Sell Tickets

  • Sell Refreshments

  • Help with Lights and Sound

Behind the Scenes

  • Build Sets

  • Sew Costumes

  • Hair and Makeup Design

  • Fundraising

  • Social Media

  • Promotion
