Volunteer Your Time and Talent
Volunteers are the lifeblood of the Cultural Arts Coalition! Regular or occasional, we like them all! If you have a particular artistic or administrative skill, can present a friendly presence at events, or can provide manual labor, we would love to have you join our efforts. We are assembling a roster of volunteers to do everything and anything: set up chairs, take tickets, organize refreshments, hang art exhibits, gallery sit, design posters, plan fundraisers, update our website, manage social media, provide historic building restoration expertise, provide theater lighting and sound expertise, advise us on insurance and other business matters, etc. Call us at 845-363-8330 or email info@culturalartsco.com to let us know how you'd like to be involved.
Concerts Around the Corner Volunteers
We host approximately 5 concerts in our Concerts Around the Corner series each year, typically on Sunday afternoons. Volunteers are needed to set up/put away chairs, sell tickets, greet concert goers, set up a refreshment table, record performances among other things. If you enjoy great quality music, this is an opportunity for you.
Art Exhibit Volunteers
The Cultural Arts Coalition presents monthly art exhibitions featuring one to three artists with opening hours on first Fridays, 7 to 9 PM and gallery hours on Saturdays 12 - 2 PM. Gallery sitters are needed to open up, greet visitors and close the Studio. Other volunteers are needed to coordinate refreshments, hang and take down shows, and serve on the gallery committee.
Volunteer Coordinator
Our team is looking for an arts-loving volunteer coordinator to recruit and manage volunteers to staff concerts, theater performances, art exhibitions, and other events at the Studio Around the Corner and, in the future, the restored Southeast Old Town Hall theater. The coordinator should have strong communication skills and be willing to attend events, make phone calls and communicate by email or social media. One of the first tasks will be to create a roster of volunteers from our mailing lists, the local schools, and persons/other arts organizations who use the Studio space. Subsequently, the coordinator will be expected to assign and supervise volunteers. The coordinator will report to the Studio Director but also will be encouraged to attend board meetings to help plan events.

Gallery sitters are needed to open up, greet visitors and close the facility. For monthly music concerts and theater performances, volunteers are needed for many jobs including ticket sales, seating set up, refreshments, and cleanup. Board meetings occur once per month.
