Welcome to the Online Home of "The Saints"

The Saints is a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) corporation that provides volunteers for the performing arts.  At the present time our 1800 + members serve most of the Chicago and suburban theater, dance and music venues listed in our Performing Arts Groups link.  We usher, help with mailings, provide personnel for a variety of events—and, in return, we get to see the performances where we usher.  Our members choose the venues and performances where they want to volunteer, as often or as seldom as they like. We also give scholarships to college students and grants to arts organizations.  We have General Meetings with interesting speakers from the industry and also hold an annual Benefit event.  Saints members receive "The Spotlight", our magazine listing all the volunteering opportunities, every month and also receive email updates for these openings 3 times a week.  Any donations and contributions to The Saints are tax-deductible!  In summary, the Saints, for the cost of a nominal yearly membership fee, is the best deal in town.  Learn more about us and explore our history here!
