WEEKEND VOLUNTEERS
Festival Setup
Wear your grubbies and help us build the Festival! We start the Thursday before the event begins and work right up to the opening day on Friday to get everything ready for our guests. Help us set up canopies, set barricades, hang signs and banners, setup chairs and tables, set up booths, and help artists get settled. If you’re not afraid of a little hard physical labor come and join us!
Visual Artists Booth Sitter
Enjoy meeting people? This is a great way to help out our visual artists by giving them a break in their long day, refill their water bottles or get a bite to eat. You don’t have to sell their art, you just hang out in their booth and tell the patrons the artists will be back in a few minutes.
Information Booth
If you’ve been coming to the Arts Festival for years, share some of your knowledge with fellow patrons at the Information Booth. We’ll have Festival guides, performance schedules and names of visual artists and their booth locations in the Marketplace available for our guests.
Food & Beverage Booth
This is a great opportunity for groups, friends, or organizations to volunteer together. We need volunteers to serve hotdogs and sodas.
Children’s Art Yard
If you’re a kid at heart, this is where we need your talents! Come help the kiddies as they create their masterpieces!
Festival Tear Down
Come help us take everything down and put it away for next year. This job involves lots of physical labor. We start packing up the grounds right when the festival ends on Sunday. We work until the park is cleaned up entirely. Help us tear down canopies, remove the barricades, bring down signs and banners, stack chairs and tables, tear down booths, and help artists get packed up and ready to go.
Check In Procedures
Check In
Check in at the festival registration desk each day you are scheduled to volunteer. Please arrive 15 minutes before your scheduled shift time. Wear comfortable shoes and sunscreen. It’s unusually hot in Utah in the summertime, but we have been known to get an occasional summer thunderstorm rolling through in the late afternoons, so bring a light jacket if the forecast is for rain.
