Requirements for membership include:

Ushers

Interested in supporting the performing arts, seeing great shows, and working with a diverse and exciting group of people? If so, the Annenberg Center Volunteer Usher Corps is the place for you!

Providing exceptional customer service to our patrons, Volunteer Ushers assist with seating, greeting, distributing programs, and taking tickets at our eclectic array of performances. In return for your hard work, dedication, and service, you’ll get the chance to not only see great works of art but also meet interesting people in an exciting environment. This is not your ordinary volunteer experience.

For more information, please contact Christopher Dorman at dormanc@ac.upenn.edu. New Volunteer Usher orientations will be held at the beginning of Fall and Winter semesters.

Children's Festival Volunteers

Once a year, the Annenberg Center embarks on a three-day extravaganza geared toward children and families in the Greater Philadelphia area. The Philadelphia International Children’s Festival reaches thousands of children and includes performances of dance, music and theater as well as an outdoor FUNZONE chock-full of free live performances and crafts of all sorts and sizes.

To make the Children's Festival a success, we need your help! Volunteers help out with FUNZONE set-up/tear down and on the many crafts and art tables going on throughout the day.

The Children’s Festival takes place over a Thursday, Friday and Saturday in May. For more information, please contact Christopher Dorman at dormanc@ac.upenn.edu.
