How to Get Involved in Staten Island OutLOUD  . . .
 
OutLOUD volunteers are some of the coolest, most interesting people in town!  To get involved, call us at 718-907-0709, or email us at   sioutloud@yahoo.com.

 
We love our volunteers!

Neighbors - of all ages - volunteer with Staten Island OutLOUD.   You can get involved for just an hour, or on an ongoing basis.  We love to welcome new participants, and there's a nice variety of things you can enjoy doing: 
 
(1)  HELP US HOST:  Help us set up, pass out programs, greet people (even bring cookies if you like to bake).  Young people make great hosts, and students can earn community service credit for volunteering with Staten Island OutLOUD! 
 
(2) PLAN NEW EVENTS:  Brainstorm with us on new program ideas, research literature, contact our community partners.
 
(3)  PUBLICITY Help us with mailings, give flyers to your neighbors, forward our email announcements to your friends. 
 
(4) BRING YOUR CAMERA!   Take photos, DVDs or videos of OutLOUD events.  It's a huge help!
 
(5) TALENT SCOUT:   Do you have a friend who has a great speaking voice?  A singer?  A musician?  A dancer? A set or costume designer?  A graphic artist?  Tell us about them!  We're always looking for new community talent.
 
 (6) CREATIVE:   If you'd like to design a flyer, help with our website, or help us decorate a set, we'd appreciate your help!

How can I become a performer with OutLOUD? 


Anyone who comes to an OutLOUD event can get involved.  You can start by coming to our small participatory readings, so we can get familiar with your voice and style.  Then, when we cast our large staged readings, we could invite you to perform with us. 

No acting experience is necessary to be cast as a reader in our staged events, just a strong voice.  Reliability is another important quality.

We're informal and fun...  Perfect for all ages!  And if you're a dancer or musician, we'd love to talk with you about the possibility of performing in a future OutLOUD event.  please call us at 718-907-0709.
