Ways to Get Involved
Our volunteers are alumni, parents, faculty, staff, donors, and friends who are passionate about Interlochen and the arts. As a volunteer, your unique interests and experience are invaluable to Interlochen.
On-Campus Volunteer Opportunities
Every year, hundreds of people volunteer their time to make Interlochen one of the nation’s most remarkable educational institutions. Volunteers are crucial to our success, and we're fortunate to have amazing individuals who want to make a difference. Volunteer opportunities include:

- Sewing costumes for students performances
- Ushering at concerts and events

Off-Campus Volunteer Opportunities
Those who wish to give back to the Interlochen community but don't live near our "stately pines" can do so from afar. Off-campus volunteer and engagement activities include planning, hosting, facilitating, or attending Interlochen-sponsored events in your area; being a Regional Ambassador; servicing an Interlochen Committee; and much more.
