Volunteering With The Arts

La Mirada Symphony Volunteer Opportunities

The La Mirada Symphony exists because our community believes that world-class, live orchestral music should be accessible to everyone. Our concerts are free to attend, but they aren’t free to produce — and that’s where you come in.

Why Volunteer With the La Mirada Symphony?

When you volunteer with the Symphony, you’re doing more than handing out programs. You’re helping:

  • Keep free concerts available to families, students, and seniors.

  • Support local musicians and guest artists who bring world-class performances to our city.

  • Strengthen arts and music education for young people in our community.

Whether you have a few hours on concert days or skills you’d like to share behind the scenes, there’s a place for you here.

Ways You Can Help

We welcome volunteers with all kinds of backgrounds and experience. Some of the areas where we especially need help include:

  • Front-of-House Support – greeting guests, handing out programs, helping patrons find their seats, and answering basic questions.

  • Creative Fundraising & Development – assisting with grant writing, researching funding opportunities, corporate sponsorships, and community fundraisers.

  • Community Outreach – helping us share concert information with schools, local businesses, and community groups.

  • Special Events & Receptions – supporting donor events, receptions, raffles, and other special community activities.

  • Administrative & Behind-the-Scenes Help – data entry, organizing materials, or helping with special projects as needed.

If you have a skill that’s not listed here — from marketing to photography to graphic design — we’d still love to hear from you.

What to Expect as a Volunteer

  • Flexible opportunities – volunteer for a single concert, a specific project, or on an ongoing basis.

  • A supportive team – you’ll be working alongside board members, staff, and other volunteers who care deeply about music and the community.

  • A meaningful impact – every hour you give helps us continue offering free, high-quality symphonic concerts at the La Mirada Theatre for the Performing Arts.

No previous orchestra or arts experience is required — just a willingness to help and a love for live music.
