VOLUNTEER WITH US
Volunteers are an extremely important and essential part of The Lincoln Center family. We rely on our volunteers to be our eyes and ears and to assist patrons in navigating and participating in the over 300 performances and events we offer each year. Volunteers get exposed to a wide array of artistic and professional endeavors including theatrical performances, dance productions, art gallery installations, concerts and community events. We ask our volunteers to fill many roles such as greeters, ushers, ticket-takers, guides and art gallery attendants. While volunteers get to enjoy a majority of the presentations that they work, the priority is providing our patrons with a professional and enjoyable experience that makes them want to return time and time again.
