Volunteer

Emmanuel Music would not exist without our community of musicians, audiences, staff, supporters, and volunteers - it truly takes a village to make this incredible music happen. If you’d like to help us out behind the scenes, please see below to determine whether any of these areas may be a good fit for you.

Checking in volunteers at an event

Our volunteer opportunities are very flexible. You can volunteer with us on an occasional or regular basis, and we can put you where you are most comfort able and or interested in learning more.

Most volunteer work will take place at our offices/performances at EmmanuelChurch, located at 15 Newbury St., Boston, MA 02116. Some remote work may be possible depending on the need.

To learn more/express your interest, please email our Executive Director, John, at executivedirector@emmanuelmusic.org

Internship Opportunities

Emmanuel Music is able to offer arts administration internships for academic credit during the fall, spring, and summer semesters. Our internships are designed to provide students with a truly educational experience (not filing or getting coffee), and are flexible to accommodate a student’s areas of interest and need. 

To apply for any of the above internships, please send a resume and something that you think describes you well (cover letter, video, vision board, etc.) to our Executive Director, John, at executivedirector@emmanuelmusic.org
