Volunteer — The Liberty Theatre Yass

Get Involved

Our volunteers are crucial to restoring the building, delivering events and are the backbone of our organisation. These passionate, skilled and enthusiastic individuals enable us to extend our work to cherish, protect and share our places and stories.

We offer volunteer roles assisting us in the delivery of our unique cinematic and artistic experience. We have a broad range of roles to suit your skills, including handiwork, education and events, historic research, retail and administration.

All volunteer roles are flexible and work around your interests, skills and availability. Whether you can make a regular weekly commitment or prefer to help out every now and again, we welcome and value your involvement.

Whatever your interests, we promise you a rewarding experience - all you need are a few hours to spare and lots of enthusiasm.

  • Have fun

  • Gain experience

  • Learn new skills

  • Do something different

  • Increase your confidence

  • Make friends

  • Attend special events and training

  • Contribute to community

  • Event volunteers help us with a wide range of programs and events throughout the year, at a range of locations. Event volunteers provide support with logistics to help the event run smoothly, welcome visitors, and support the running of activities. So in this role, you need to be flexible, enjoy working with a variety of people of different ages and backgrounds, and be ready to step in and help wherever needed.

  • Many hands make light work and sometimes we need some help to get stuck in and to get things done. Whether it’s painting or helping to get the cinema ready for a big event. It can be physical but we can promise you will see the difference before your eyes.

  • The committee is the engine room of the organisation, meeting regularly to progress projects and decide the operational and strategic direction. If you want to regularly contribute your time to any aspect of our work, big or small, broad or specific, the committee will find a place to work with you and make things happen. Committee meetings are open to all members to attend.

  • Whether you can line up the best photo shot or a poet with words. If you are savvy with ring lights, your grid is on point or graphic design is your passion, we need your expertise!

    This role includes, but is not limited to:

    Assisting with the merchandising;

    Assisting with Social Media posts and platform analytics;

    Preparing communications materials and campaigns; and

    Updating website content and design.

  • Our volunteer researchers are treasure hunters. They explore the history of the theatre and all that has happened there. This role will require critical thinking, attention to detail, recording findings and working independently. You will need to work cooperatively and collaboratively with other volunteers, committee and community members and may need to visit libraries and historical institutions.
