See Live Music. Meet Great People.

Save to Favorites

We are seeking volunteer help in our kitchen. Jobs range from preparing food to, making coffee, to washing dishes. This is a great opportunity to meet people, hear music and have FUN! (Previous experience not required.)

Here's a little information about us:

Focused on music: If you have been to Caffe Lena before you will know that it feels really special. It feels respectful of the musicians and also the music itself. Having the kitchen staffed by volunteers adds to this feeling: everyone here cares about music and this space. Everything that happens at Caffe Lena is a labor of love.

Non-profit: This is a not-for-profit organization. Our mission is to preserve and evolve roots music, and give people a chance to play and enjoy music. There are only a handful of paid staff, which makes volunteers a much treasured part of the system.

Community: There are about 30 volunteers who volunteer at least once a month. I might be biased but I think that we have the best volunteers around. Every night you volunteer you can hang out with a great group of people and listen to world-class musicians, which I think is one of the biggest perks of the job!

Food: A significant percent of the food we serve is home-made or locally sourced. Lizzie, our cook, has been working here for more than twenty years. Feeding people well-prepared food is an important part of Caffe’s traditions.
