Civic Center Volunteers (STARS)

Show time is go time at the Civic Center Music Hall, and no show time is possible without the generosity and commitment of our invaluable "supporting cast" of 300 volunteer STARS. Of all ages and from all walks of life, our STARS provide a warm welcome and gracious hospitality when patrons visit our house.

STARS contributed over 19,000 hours to the Civic Center last year, providing essential services to Civic Center artists and patrons at a variety of events.

From welcoming event patrons, providing useful information about the facility, serving as ticket takers and ushers, and working in the concession and coat check areas, STARS stand on the the front line of our success.
