The Northern Arts and Cultural Centre relies on volunteers to help us run the show. Our volunteers are an invaluable part of the artistic community in the North and ensure that we continue to bring wonderful shows to our stage. It is an opportunity to meet people, watch the show (for free), get community service hours/work experience, and have a lot of fun.

Every show hosted at NACC needs at least 8 volunteers to scan tickets, usher patrons, run concession, and provide our guests with a great experience. We are incredibly appreciative of all the support we receive, and in return always encourage our volunteers to stay and enjoy the show once their duties are completed. 

Each fall, we host a volunteer orientation for all newcomers. We cover the roles of ushering, ticket taking, running the box office, staffing concession, and more! This orientation is a fantastic way to get acquainted with the space and meet some of the friendly faces you’ll be seeing as a volunteer. Dinner and snacks are provided during the orientation. 

Did you miss this year’s orientation? It’s not too late! Any new volunteers can get their training when they show up for their first shift. 

To learn more about how to donate your time as a volunteer, phone us at (867)873-4950 or email at volunteers@naccnt.ca.

Training
In order to ensure you enjoy your experience while volunteering, we ask that our new volunteers take the time to get properly oriented in the space. We offer a volunteer orientation session at the beginning of every season so that we can go over all of the duties & requirements for each position. Missed this year’s orientation? Each of our Front of House staff are trained in volunteer orientation and can provide you with information the day of your first shift!

Shifts
Each show shift begins 60 minutes prior to showtime. This ensures we are able to properly set up the space, make sure all of our team is properly oriented, and open our box office, concession, and the show doors on time. If you are going to be late, please give us a call at (867)873-4950.

Customer Service
One of NACC’s biggest priorities is to make our patrons feel welcome and appreciated, so we can encourage attendance at future shows. We rely on our front of house staff & volunteers to make this happen! We ask that our volunteers ensure they are polite, friendly, and approachable.

Volunteer Bulletin Board & Binder
The bulletin board is located in the concession area on the wall closest to the door.  It will have information on the performance, upcoming events, task lists for each volunteer position, emergency procedure info, and more!  Please check upon arrival for your shift.
