Year-Round and Seasonal Volunteers

Save to Favorites

Founded in 2016 by Brian Garman and Jonathon Loy, Berkshire Opera Festival (BOF) is an opera company dedicated to the mission to entertain and enrich the lives of people of all ages and backgrounds throughout the Berkshire region by providing accessible and affordable performances of a broad range of operas with the highest artistic standards. Recent productions include Mozart's Don Giovanni, Puccini's La Bohème, and Gounod's Faust.

Now celebrating its 10th Anniversary season, BOF has appointed Natalie Johnsonius Neubert as its first CEO/President, and presents a full season that includes musically and dramatically compelling operatic productions each summer as well as recitals, educational community programs, and other related musical events throughout the year. We are seeking eager volunteers to help us fulfill the needs of our bold programming!

BOF needs individuals who will be able to pass out flyers around Berkshire county, occasionally assist our staff in our Pittsfield office, usher performances and provide special event assistance, as well as other support as needed.

We believe opera is a living, breathing, relevant art form, and must be nurtured for it to survive and thrive. There is no substitute for experiencing the power of the live, unamplified human voice in a theater, and opera has the inherent, transformative ability to greatly enhance one’s quality of life. BOF seeks to be an integral and vital part of our community by producing world-class programming that is musically and dramatically compelling, encompasses the entire operatic repertoire, and fulfills our mission to be accessible and affordable to all Berkshire area residents.

Join us in the celebration! If you have any questions, please contact BOF's Advancement Associate Emma Robertson at erobertson@berkshireoperafestival.org.
