Have some fun! Volunteer!

Volunteering at the Simsbury Meadows Performing Arts Center is a great way to get involved. You’ll see the concerts of course, but you’ll also see a lot of your neighbors and friends – and make some new friends, too – all while contributing to a fun community event.

It takes many hands to put on a concert, and we need volunteers throughout the summer season from the end of May to mid-September. From set up to tear down, directing cars to ushering, we rely on our dedicated and enthusiastic group of volunteers.
Join the fun this year and help keep the music playing in Simsbury.

There are lots of ways to help.

There’s a job for everyone, and we welcome new people and new energy. We ask all volunteers to attend a brief pre-season orientation meeting where we’ll go over the specifics of each position, answer questions, and share our vision for the SMPAC. The most popular volunteer jobs are:
