Screenings, community days, hip hop showcases, relief days and partner gatherings are where many people meet We The Revolt for the first time. Interns on this track plan and run them. A good event looks effortless because someone planned every detail: the permits, the run of show, the volunteers, the accessible entrance, the plan for rain. The people we serve are guests, never an audience to be managed.
What we need
- Event planning: build timelines, budgets, vendor lists and run-of-show documents for screenings and community events.
- Volunteer coordination: schedule, brief and support Event Crew volunteers.
- Community outreach: work with churches, schools, community organizations and local businesses to invite neighbors and families.
- On-site management: registration, accessibility, safety procedures and breakdown.
- Evaluation: collect attendance and feedback, and write an after-action report for each event.
What we expect from you
- Organization and follow-through. Details are written down, confirmed and confirmed again.
- Hospitality toward every guest, with particular care for families, young people and returning citizens.
- Calm judgment under pressure, and the discipline to escalate a safety concern immediately.
- A cleared background check and safeguarding training, because events include young people and families.
- Availability for some evening and weekend events.
What you will gain
- Experience producing events from first plan to final evaluation.
- Experience coordinating volunteers and working with community partners.
- Practical training in event safety, accessibility and safeguarding.
- A written evaluation at the close of the term and, on successful completion, a professional reference from your supervisor.
Deliverables
- Complete planning documents for at least two events: timeline, budget, run of show and staffing plan.
- After-action reports with attendance, feedback and recommendations.
- An updated directory of community partners and venues for your city.
