Volunteer at the Fringe
If you like theater, working with talented people and want to support arts in New Orleans, then volunteer with the Fringe! The Fringe can't happen without volunteers. We need help promoting the festival, managing venues, selling tickets, and cleaning up! Even if you just have a couple of hours to post fliers, we would be grateful! Remember: work a shift, see a show for free (and get a beer).
There are a variety of volunteer opportunities both before and during the Festival, which are roughly outlined below. Everyone who volunteers his or her time will receive comp tickets in exchange for work.
Before the Festival
There is a lot to do before the Festival! Please send your contact info along with any pertinent skills (sewing, carpentry, visual art, etc.) to ben@nofringe.org. You will be added to our special volunteers mailing list, so that whenever we need help, you will be informed. Some of these opportunities may include blacking out windows at venues, building out stages, posting fliers around town, painting signs, etc.
