Founded by Craig Noel and Irma Macpherson in 1955 as a volunteer auxiliary, the Globe Guilders have been an essential part of the Globe family for over 60 years. The organization has over 200 members, and together they volunteer thousands of hours each year in areas throughout the Theatre:

• Serve as Globe ambassadors in the community
• Provide treats and an inviting atmosphere on the first day of rehearsal for each production
• “Adopt” each of the students in The Old Globe/University of San Diego Shiley Graduate Theatre Program
• Coordinate and run the activities on the Globe Plaza during December Nights
• Volunteering in the Globe’s administrative offices, costume shop, and Technical Center
• Much more!

Each year, their largest annual fundraiser is a beautiful Fashion Show presented with Neiman Marcus, which raises over $100,000 to support the Globe’s artistic, education and community programs.

The Guilders are always happy to welcome new members. To learn more about joining this amazing group of volunteers, contact Vice President of Membership Wendy Ledford at wendytledford@yahoo.com or visit www.GlobeGuilders.org.
