Support the Arts with Your Time

What is an Ambassador?

Join the Ambassadors of Terpsicorps, a passionate team of volunteers helping to shape the future of our nonprofit dance company! With a year-round staff of just one, Terpsicorps thrives thanks to the support, creativity, and dedication of our community.

Ambassadors contribute in ways that fit their skills and schedules—whether through one-time projects or ongoing committee involvement.

Why Join?

⭐ Make an Impact – Help bring world-class contemporary ballet to life, expand our audience, and secure vital resources.

⭐ Build Connections – Meet like-minded arts supporters in Asheville or Winston-Salem. We host a yearly gathering in each city to connect, discuss projects, and find the best ways to contribute.

⭐ Volunteer on Your Terms – Join as many or as few committees as you like, with flexible schedules to fit your availability.

Ambassador Clubs

Here are just a few ways you can get involved. Most committees start with an initial brainstorming session, then meet as needed based on the project:

🎭 Fundraising Events – Help plan and run events, secure auction items, or bring creative ideas to the table. Great for those with hospitality contacts or event planning experience!
📣 Get Out the Word – Boost ticket sales by sharing on social media, connecting us with local media, or distributing promotional materials. Perfect for community connectors and social media enthusiasts.
🤝 Development – Expand our donor base by making introductions, bringing new faces to shows, or assisting with fundraising efforts.
🌍 Outreach – Help Terpsicorps reach new audiences by coordinating performances for underserved youth, retirement communities, and educational centers.
🎟 Front of House – Be part of performance nights by ushering or assisting with guest services (and enjoy the show for free!). No brainstorming required—just show up and help!
🏡 Housing – Provide or help secure housing for dancers while they’re in town. Hosts receive complimentary tickets as a thank you. No meetings necessary!
📦 Grunt Work Social Club – Help with essential tasks like stuffing envelopes or organizing materials—while enjoying a fun, social atmosphere. No meetings, just camaraderie!
