Volunteers are needed to help us celebrate the Opera through our 13th annual fundraiser and an experience like no other…
Lobster Palooza!
Lobster Palooza! is an evening of fun, fabulous food, and dancing with Indy’s best revelers! This year’s event will be held at the home of Indianapolis Opera, The Basile Opera Center.
Lobster Palooza! is attended by over 200 guests and supports the mission of the Indianapolis Opera. This is a major fundraiser for the Opera Company. Volunteers would be helping bring opera to Indianapolis and the Central Indiana area. The Indianapolis Opera has an extensive Education and Outreach department that reaches out to thousands of children. Please visit indyopera.org/lobsterpalooza for more event specific information.

SHIFT/JOB DETAILS:
- Check-in/Greeters - We will need 5-7 volunteers to assist with check-in and to also serve as greeters. Time: 5-7pm

- Clean-up Crew #2 - 7-9pm - 6-8 volunteers will be needed for this shift. They will continue to clean up the main dining area and begin taking down tables and chairs. They will possibly be assisting with transitioning from the dining hour to the after-dinner party/dancing/entertainment set up, which would be very light work. They would also monitor ancillary areas, such as the outdoor patio areas and make sure all is kept tidy.
