Volunteering at Portland'5
The Volunteers of Portland’5 Centers for the Arts are enthusiastic, customer service-oriented individuals from across the Portland Metro area who bring their unique experiences, varied languages, and shared love of live performance to our theaters.
Our volunteer ushers play an important role in creating an exceptional experience for every patron. From welcoming guests and assisting them to their seats to answering questions and providing helpful information, our volunteers help create the warm, welcoming environment that makes a visit to Portland’5 special.
As a volunteer, you’ll have the opportunity to meet new people, become part of Portland’s vibrant performing arts community, and enjoy a wide variety of outstanding performances featuring organizations such as the Oregon Symphony, Stumptown Stages, Oregon Ballet Theatre, Portland Youth Philharmonic, Portland Opera, and many more.
We deeply value the time, enthusiasm, and commitment our volunteers generously share with us. If you have a passion for the arts, enjoy helping others, and would like to be part of creating memorable experiences for our patrons, we invite you to apply and begin a rewarding journey as a Portland’5 volunteer.
We have concluded our volunteer recruitment for Fall 2026. If the need arises, we will be recruiting for volunteers in January 2027. Thank you.
