Monica Horn

Monica began volunteering at Vintage Theatre in 2010 following her retirement from a 26-year career in aviation. During the next 10 years, she was active in Technical Production at Vintage, helping build many sets as a scenic carpenter, assisting with general building maintenance and working backstage for several shows. In addition to her Technical Production contributions at Vintage, she served on Vintage Board of Directors for 4 years.

Outside of Vintage, she has been involved in audio/video production at her church and has crewed on shows for public access television. In her spare time, she enjoys skiing the Colorado’s mountains, and remodeling and decorating her Arvada home. Monica is grateful for all the wonderful people she has met and the good times she has shared with Vintage Theatre.
