One of the
most important roles at Riverside Theatre: volunteer! Each year
hundreds of volunteers contribute thousands of hours to making this
professional theatre work. Volunteers bring expertise, energy and an
important community connection to every job – and simply stretch what
our staff and artists can do. Volunteers are respected, appreciated and
made part of the Riverside team. If you have a few hours or many,
occasional time or regular, particular skills or a desire to learn
something new – call us. We’ll match your interests with our needs.
