If you love – or are just curious about – live symphonic music, you can see Elgin Symphony Orchestra concerts for free by volunteering as an usher at our performances. Ushers are needed to assist with greeting, taking tickets and seating patrons. Ushers arrive 90 minutes before show time, and receive free entry to the concert in exchange for their ushering assistance. Pleasant demeanor, a willingness to help, and an interest in the symphony are all that is required. Dress code is black slacks or skirt and a white shirt. To volunteer or learn more about this opportunity, email boxoffice@elginsymphony.org.
