Assist with physical event setup, including furniture placement, décor, linens, signage, floral arrangements, and food and beverage stations.
Replenish supplies for bartenders and caterers throughout the event.

Ability to work outdoors in variable weather conditions during event setup and event day.
Ability to remain on one’s feet for extended periods during event preparation and event execution, as needed.

PERKS OF THE JOB:

Accrued paid sick leave.
Complimentary tickets to Playhouse performances.
Hands-on experience supporting La Jolla Playhouse’s signature events.
