Volunteer
Have you ever seen a show and thought “wow, they look like they’re having a lot of fun up there!”? Guess what? You could be part of that fun, even if you don’t want to be on stage! An ASPI production, on average, requires about 20 – 50 people to make all the pieces come together. Know how to sew? Do DIY Projects? Paint a room? Like experimenting with Hair & Makeup? Talking to people? Are you retired and looking for something to do? In the words of Rich Fields, “Come on Down!” (or up, if you live south of Abrams)
Check out some descriptions below. Email volunteers.aspi@gmail.com or call us at (920) 826-5852 if you have more questions or are interested in helping out.
