Volunteer Testimony: Laurel Harris

I enjoy volunteering with Ballet Kelowna because it gives me the opportunity to be involved within the artistic community while enjoying the contribution of talent and professionalism that Ballet Kelowna provides. We are blessed to have a high level of performance art in our community, and Artistic Director Simone Orlando and her Company have been a significant part of that.

I have enjoyed doing everything from mending costumes, painting props, delivering posters, and selling memberships, but my favorite way to contribute is assisting with special events, fundraisers, and performances and seeing how much Ballet Kelowna is appreciated for their contribution to the cultural landscape of the Okanagan.

As a volunteer, we are also privy to attending special volunteer appreciation performances. Getting to know the dancers and seeing the skill and enjoyment of their craft is a big part of my why I like to volunteer with such a deserving organization. Dance has always been a big part of my life, and if you are like me and would like to volunteer with Ballet Kelowna, there are a number of different avenues you can assist with, depending on your strengths and interests.

I encourage others to get involved. It is a great way to meet other like-minded people and support the arts in our area.
