Become a Supporting Artist
Volunteers in CO_LAB classes are called Supporting Artists (or SAs) and they support theater workshops for individuals with developmental disabilities. CO_LAB Theater Group typically accepts applications for our Supporting Artists program twice per year (in the winter and summer). A great Supporting Artist is reliable, takes initiative in the CO_LAB classroom, participates in class fully, and approaches participants in a positive manner.
At CO_LAB, we aim to build a diverse group of Supporting Artists with a wide range of backgrounds and expertise. The program has different commitment levels so that you can participate as your schedule allows. Supporting Artists also receive invitations to community events and free professional development sessions throughout the season.
A big thank you to our growing list of past and present volunteers—we couldn’t do it without you.
