Volunteer at The Arts Center

Volunteers are the backbone of AACA. Arts supporters can participate in a variety of means with different degrees of time commitment.

We call our volunteers Arts Ambassadors. These ambassadors can:

  • Help with administrative tasks

  • Support "front of house" during events (pass out programs, sell concessions)

  • Host receptions and decorate for events

  • Build and paint set pieces

  • Lift heavy things

  • Join committees and offer strategic insight and help execute programs and events like our concert series and the Gala

  • Learn about and consider board service

THANK YOU TO OUR OCTOBER VOLUNTEERS!

SEPTEMBER VOLUNTEER OF THE MONTH: MATTHEW CRABTREE

Our Interim Executive Director, Ellen Kimball, has had the pleasure of working with Matthew at the piano on several musical collaborations at The Arts Center and beyond.

“What a blithe, helpful spirit!  Always there, always on time, always prepared,” she said. “Matthew stands ready to respond to any request to ‘play it again slower, faster, louder, softer.’ He’s always aiming to please and be helpful.”

An enduring memory for Ellen is his powerful delivery of the vocal solo “Being Alive” in the 2024 ACT production of “Sondheim Tribute Revue.” Matthew has so much talent and such a heart for sharing it!  

Program Director, Holly Doucette, was thrilled to have Matthew volunteer his time with our Community Piece Project by painting several unique and colorful “quilt squares.” She also noted that he worked the concessions booth for each show of “Mean Girls.”

Thank you, Matthew, for tirelessly sharing your talent and time with us!
