We try to include all kinds of volunteering and helping opportunities for all kinds of interests, talents, passions, and ages! As you’ll see, these include volunteering opportunities (one-time and long-term) as well as the chance to support a nonprofit by attending fundraising events. Plus, of course, we include all of Big Sunday’s homegrown events, too! Whoever you are, and whatever you do, there is someone out there who could use your help.
If you have questions about our calendar, or would like to add a listing, please contact calendar@bigsunday.org or submit your event/opportunity via the button below.

The November/December film pairing continues the consideration of the role that music plays in Westerns. But what else connects a hit musical and a classic Western with an Academy Award–winning score? The same director: Fred Zinnemann!
Introduced by Josh Garrett-Davis, Gamble Assistant Curator of Western History, Popular Culture, and Firearms.
A cowboy. A farm girl. A dance. A beautiful morning. A surrey with a fringe on top. All the ingredients of a classic Western, no? Well, there are also the fences, the coming statehood, and a sinister villain of sorts. Curly McLain takes a fancy to Laurey Williams, but can they become betrothed around the sinister plotting of Jud Fry? Plus all those Rodgers and Hammerstein tunes, ringing across the landscape of . . . Oklahoma!
Directed by Fred Zinnemann | Starring Gordon MacRae, Gloria Grahame, and Gene Nelson
Screened in 35mm
Admission: Included With Museum Admission / Free for Autry Members

Throughout 2016, audience members voted for their favorite Western. This year’s selection is High Noon, which will be introduced in December with a conversation between Josh Garrett-Davis, Assistant Gamble Curator of Western History, Popular Culture, and Firearms, and Jon Burlingame, a leading writer on film music.
Directed by Fred Zinnemann | Starring Gary Cooper, Grace Kelly, and Thomas Mitchell
There is nothing like the unstoppable progress of the clock or an oncoming train to build up tension in any thriller. But film music helps build that tension, and High Noon won Academy Awards for both Dimitri Tiomkin’s score and Tex Ritter’s original song. Gary Cooper stars as retired marshal Will Kane, who must make the anguishing decision of whether to fight or flee in a classic allegory for the blacklist that was tearing Hollywood apart during the Cold War.
Admission: Included With Museum Admission / Free for Autry Members
