The Office of the Arts sends out emails to the overhire list when stagehands, technicians, or artisans are required for projects.

If interested in a call, individuals may reply by email with their availability for the shifts sent, provided they have the technical expertise to fill the call. If selected for the shift, a representative from the production department will respond by asking for confirmation. The overhire must then confirm they are taking the shifts. Preference is given to individuals who can commit to full projects, and the Office of the Arts fills shifts/calls on a first come, first served basis, taking into account the technical needs of the production.

This overhire list has limited space and is refreshed/cycled regularly based on the availability and number of calls worked by individuals on the list.
