Volunteer Opportunity Details:

Seattle Center’s Teen Tix is an arts access program for teenagers. Since 2004, we have been partnering with arts presenting organizations throughout the Seattle region to make it possible for our members to purchase $5.00 tickets to the arts. To date, over 25,000 teenagers have been Teen Tix members, and the popularity of the program is growing!

Teen Tix’s Teen Steering Committee is a group of opinionated and highly dedicated individuals who are committed to making the arts accessible for young people.

Here are a few of the things that we do:

• Come up with innovate marketing techniques for promoting the arts to teenagers
• Write and create content for the Teen Tix blog, website, and other media outlets
• Meet with leaders from various arts organizations to share our ideas and learn about what they do
• Serve as “watchdogs” by attending venues and checking up on the box office experience.
• Plan and help execute Special Events at Participating Organizations
• Act as ambassadors for Teen Tix at your school
• Help set the course for the future of the Teen Tix program
• See shows!

If you believe that the arts are valuable, if you want to help make the arts accessible for everyone regardless of age or income, and if you want to be a leader in Seattle’s youth arts movement, we need your voice!

The Teen Steering Committee meets monthly from October to June of each year at Seattle Center.
Participation in the committee can qualify for Service Learning Credit at your school.

First Meeting for the 2009-10 school year is October 26 at 4pm.

Ready to throw in your name?
It’s easy! You must be nominated to join the committee. Simply have an adult (who is not your parent) or a fellow teen email us with a short explanation of why YOU should be part of our team.
