Volunteer Usher

Do you enjoy meeting new people? Do you love the arts? Do you want to support the arts while creating a positive experience for others?

The Hammer Theatre in Downtown San Jose is looking for folks to join our Volunteer Team. Volunteers serve as event ushers, taking tickets and assisting patrons inside the theatre during in-person events. They can also serve as ambassadors, handing out fliers in their local communities

Volunteers are required to come to an informational meeting to learn more about the program and determine if our program is a good fit for you.

After the initial meeting, you will complete the SJSU onboarding process and then complete additional in-person training. Once complete, you will be able to view and sign up for shifts as you choose. Shift dates and times vary and all verified volunteers are given advance notice of those dates and times and an opportunity to sign up in advance. Most shifts are 3-4 hours and happen in the evening and on weekends.

Volunteer perks include - if space allows - to be inside the theatre and view the show while also keeping aware of any audience needs and a celebration with raffle prizes awarded at the end of each season. Volunteers also may choose to request validated parking at a nearby garage.
