• Artist Fees: Ensuring our local storytellers and performers are paid fairly for their work.

• Project Materials: Providing the tools needed for our creative programming.

• Production Costs: Lighting, sound, and venue rentals that bring our community’s stories to the stage.

• Accessibility: Keeping our ticket prices low (or free) so that everyone in our community can participate.

Absolutely! VOICES is a community-driven organization, and we thrive on the energy, talents, and stories of people like you. There are several ways to join the movement:

• Behind the Scenes: We are always looking for volunteers to help with our On Stage productions. Whether it’s ushering, tech support, or helping with event setup, our shows couldn't happen without our volunteer team.

• Share Your Story: Are you a storyteller or musician? We are constantly seeking fresh voices to take the stage. If you have a story to tell or music to share, we want to hear from you.

• Lead a Project: As we grow, we occasionally look for Project Directors to help us expand our programming. If you have a vision for a community storytelling project, let’s talk!
