We Love Our Volunteers!
Volunteers are an essential part of the festival and each year it takes more than 40 volunteers to make the event a community success!
THERE ARE SEVERAL WAYS TO HELP
Become a board member: Board members are the base of this volunteer organization. They work on various aspects of the festival including planning, entertainment, obtaining sponsors, and participating on-site on the days of the festival. Email christy@eaganartfestival.org.
Help Behind the Scenes: Stuffing envelopes, helping with grants, press releases, marketing, judging, updating signs, data base entry – there are many things that need to be done each season.
Be a part of the Action: During the week of the festival, we mark the field on Wednesday and Thursday, have on-site set up all day Friday and provide support to the patrons and artists all day Saturday and Sunday. We need help each of these days to ensure a smooth weekend of fun! Site setup involves putting up signs, setting up tables and chairs, checking in vendors and artists, and helping to guide them to their tent spots. On Saturday and Sunday, hand out brochures, give artists a short break, pick up the coffee for the artists, distribute surveys, or help during the awards ceremony, these are just a few examples of the many tasks you can do to be of assistance.
Honors Society Students earning their volunteer points are a welcome part of this event!
