Volunteer Opportunities
BE A PART OF THE ART – VOLUNTEER TODAY
Are you interested in volunteering for the only professional ballet company in Michigan? Consider volunteering for Grand Rapids Ballet! All volunteers may see the performance for which they are volunteering without having to purchase a ticket. This is based on availability and you will be assigned the best seat available. Please know seats are not guaranteed and many performances may be standing room only for volunteers. If you’d like to learn more about volunteer opportunities, email us or call 616.454.4771 x112 today.
EN POINTE – A HIGHER LEVEL OF ENGAGEMENT
If you’d like to enjoy a deeper level of engagement through volunteering, you may want to consider joining En Pointe – a dedicated group of volunteers committed to lifting the human spirit through the art of dance by assisting us in the areas of fundraising, audience development, and education. They can regularly be seen ushering, managing the boutique, planning and executing special events, and much more.
What is En Pointe?
En Pointe is the official volunteer group for Grand Rapids Ballet. They can regularly be seen ushering, managing the boutique, planning and executing special events, and much more.
How Does it Work?
En Pointe Volunteer Coordinator Errol Shewman notifies volunteers of upcoming opportunities. As an En Pointe member, you will have first right to the shows at which you’d like to volunteer. And while we encourage membership in En Pointe, please know you do not have to be a member to volunteer. You are also not required to volunteer if you are a member.
