Each season, nearly 700 volunteers from the Dayton area donate more than 60,000 hours of their time to our organization.

As a Victoria Theatre Association volunteer, you are an an active partner in the arts in downtown Dayton. You’ll meet a lot of great people, see a lot of great shows, and know that your contribution keeps the arts affordable for all.

Volunteers primarily work as the ushers and bartenders for our performance theatres at the Victoria Theatre, Schuster Center and The Loft Theatre. Ushers are responsible for taking tickets, seating patrons, enforcing house policies, assisting patrons and answering questions. They also assist with mailings, staff fair and festival booths, and other tasks. Volunteers are expected to attend an orientation, training sessions, and commit to working a minimum of 50 hours per year.

The Victoria Theatre Association is currently accepting applications for new volunteers for the 2015-2016 season. To fill out an application, click here.
