Assistance League of Los Altos is looking for someone to help in our shop in downtown Los Altos, Costume Bank.
We are currently open 3 days a week, so we need someone who can work Thursday, Friday, or Saturday afternoons. We are open 12-5 Thursday and Friday, Saturdays 11-5. Workdays for volunteers are flexible! There is no commitment to a particular day every week/month; sign up to work when you are available.
You will learn about our costumes and accessories, helping customers to rent the costume that suits their needs. We do not require that you have costume experience; learn as you go. This is a place people come when looking forward to a party or event, and most leave very happy and satisfied with what they have found. You'll learn a lot about period dress- Colonial, Victorian, Renaissance, 20s,50s, 60s, 70s, etc. We have a whole section for Pirate costumes!
We would like you to work a couple shifts a month, which can be on different days or work one entire day of 5 hours. It is for a good cause- all money earned by us is passed onto our philanthropic programs which benefit local causes. We will orient you the first couple months, shadowing experienced League members. The shop will always be staffed by at least two others.
Thanks so much. Your time will be greatly appreciated!
