Job Description
Title: Development Seasonal Assistant, Auxiliary Boards
Department: Development
Reports to: Manager, Auxiliary Boards
SUMMARY
Gain an inside perspective into the many aspects of the Ravinia Women’s Board and the Ravinia Associates Board. The Women’s Board is a volunteer group of over 120 women who host the annual Gala, raising over $1 million annually, as well as several other events throughout the summer. The Ravinia Associates Board is a premier group of over 100 Chicagoland young professionals who both promote awareness and raise funds for the festival and its programs, primarily through the annual Music Matters Benefit.
While the primary responsibility of this position is providing assistance in all aspects of the Gala and Music Matters Benefit, this role will also have the opportunity to help with other events throughout the summer, and will work periodically with the larger Development Department, as needed. In this role, you are exposed to a variety of projects related to Ravinia’s mission, serving as great experience for anyone looking to further a career in nonprofit performing arts administration.
Events may be held virtually, in accordance with federal, state, and local COVID-19 regulations to prioritize the safety of our patrons, artists, and staff.
