Event Management

The staff of the Arts Events Office manages a corps of student and professional on-call ushers and house managers who work at most public performances in the Music Center and the Theater Arts Center. We work closely with the UCSC Ticket Office and coordinate with UCSC Parking Services.

The Arts Events Office house staff:

• Provides assistance to audience members
• Manages audience admission to the hall or theater
• Observes campus and state safety regulations
• Coordinates opening and closing of the venue with the stage manager
• Coordinates with the UCSC Ticket Office and Parking Services at performances

For Faculty and Student Directors (from departments within the Arts Division)

• Contact our office at least 8–10 weeks in advance of your event to confirm your budget and to outline promotion and house management strategies with us.
• Please submit all materials by the deadlines. Complete program and poster content is typically due at least 6–8 weeks before your event.

Who Pays for These Services?

All graphic design, media relations, and administrative event management services offered by AEO staff are provided free of charge to Arts Division departmental events.

We do charge your event for all products or services ordered on your behalf, including printing costs, mailing costs, advertising costs, house staff labor and the AEO service fee.
