About www.ActorsTheatreWorkshop.com
 
www.ActorsTheatreWorkshop.com is a static html site that lives on a hosted environment. It was recently upgraded from html to xhtml. The short-term vision for the site is to transfer it to Drupal. The non-profit organization would like to limit the dependency on a web developer for minor changes to the website and enhance the functionality of the site with built-in Drupal modules. 
 
Position Summary: The Actors Theatre Workshop seeks an experienced Drupal developer to volunteer in its NY office. The volunteer will set-up a Drupal environment on our hosted web environment, replicate and transfer the current static html site in Drupal, build a theme, and train staff on how to use the Drupal interface to update the site. The volunteer will help recruit volunteer staff with the appropriate skills for a full redesign and rearchitecture of the site. The Volunteer Drupal Developer will report to the Internet Media Marketing Manager, who is a professional web developer.
