Thank you for your interest in volunteering for the Paul Taylor American Modern Dance 2019 Season at Lincoln Center!
We deeply appreciate your time and commitment, and want you to know that you are welcome to sign up for one or more performances. This year, our season runs from October 29 - November 17, 2019. Volunteers must arrive at the David H. Koch Theater one and a half hours prior to the performance. There will be a brief orientation and you will receive a task assignment. Volunteer activities will require you to stand for the majority of the time. If you are not able to stand for long periods of time, please consider refraining from volunteering.
The time commitment for each performance follows:
5:30PM to 9:30PM for 7pm performances
6:30PM to 10:30PM for 8pm performances
12:30PM to 4:30PM for 2pm performances
We make our best effort to allow all volunteers to see the entire evening's performance; however, sometimes this is not possible.
Dress code for all volunteers is business casual, with a preference for all black attire.
For additional questions, please contact Dorcas Yip by email at dy@ptamd.org or by phone at 646-214-5811.
