Monetary contributions are not the only way you can support WAM Theatre. A large and active corps of volunteers is vital to our future success. Whatever your skills, interests and availability, there’s a place for you on the WAM Team. We have over 80 volunteers so far and can always use more, so we look forward to having you join our valued WAMily!

Contact our Director of Community Engagement Maizy Scarpa at maizy@wamtheatre.com to learn more and get involved.
