MARKETING ASSISTANCE: Help us with our VT Teddy Bear campaign! Call local businesses to schedule teddy bear visits & chauffeur the bears on their trips.
HANG ART: We have four different galleries where we'll be hanging art in early April. We'll need help unpacking and hanging. Some of the pieces are large so some lifting is involved.
SET UP AN ART RECEPTION: After the art is hung, we'll be hosting evening gallery receptions. Help us get ready, keep the food flowing, and then clean up afterwards.
PREPARE FESTIVAL MATERIALS: Put together signs, fold T-shirts, prepare ticket selling kits & volunteer training materials. A fun behind-the-scenes job.
DELIVER PROGRAM GUIDES: Deliver our program guides along routes here in town or in the far-flung regions of Chittenden County and beyond. Ideas for new delivery locations are very welcome!
OTHER PICKUPS & DELIVERIES: We have lots of pickups & deliveries to do around town before, during & after the festival. A pick up truck is needed for some deliveries, but feel free to sign up even if you don't have one.
SET UP CREW: All the last minute set up: tables and chairs, sandwich boards and signs, move sculptures into place, hang banners, and more. An active job with some lifting required.
INFORMATION TABLE: Learn about our event and staff our information table on Church Street or assist at one of our sites. Hand out program guides, give directions, and let people know about our brand-new festival.
TICKET SALES: Sell festival tickets at one of our downtown sites. Familiarity with iPhones and iPads is a big plus, as is retail experience or being good with numbers. Orientation required before the event.
SITE MANAGER: Help us run a smooth event by taking charge of one of our sites! Choose your site: Main Street Landing, Burlington City Arts, Memorial Auditorium, FlynnSpace or Contois Auditorium. A very active, fun job!
SITE ASSISTANT: Welcome attendees & performers, check wristbands, guide people in and out of performances, assist with festival logistics at your site, and answer festival goers' questions. A helpful, friendly attitude is the most important qualification.
PRODUCTION ASSISTANT: Assist our production manager to make sure all our speakers' and performers' needs are taken care of. Move tables, chairs, podiums, etc. to meet changing room configurations.
ART GALLERY ASSISTANT: Hang out at one of our art exhibits at Main Street Landing or at the SEABA Gallery on Pine Street. Learn about the artists and their work, share your knowledge with visitors, and ensure art work stays safe.
PERFORMER/VOLUNTEER HOSPITALITY: Keep our "Green Room" stocked with food for our performers, speakers & volunteers. Get to know our artists when you escort them from the airport to their lodgings and performance site. Meet & greet our volunteers, hand out T-shirts, and make sure they know where to go.
STAFF SHADOW: Shadow one of the Full Circle Festival staff before & during the festival. You'll be their go-to person. Festival experience and logistics background a definite plus!
VT SENIOR GAMES ASSISTANT: Eight different games from Pickleball to Basketball to Bocce and more. We need volunteers to set up & take down the games, assist players in a variety of ways, even chase balls!
INTERACTIVE ART DEMO: We'll have a fascinating interactive art installation by Kali Quinn at our main site, and we need volunteers to show people how to interact with it!
PHOTOGRAPHER/VIDEOGRAPHER: Document the festival as it's happening. Interview our speakers & performers and help us create a short film.
TEAR DOWN: At the end of it all, artists and performers need to pack up their stuff, and we need to clean up. The end is when we're most tired and would really, really love your help.
