Do you enjoy interacting with people? Here's an excellent opportunity to assist our visual artists by giving them a well-deserved break during their extensive workdays, allowing them to hydrate or grab a quick meal. Your role won't involve selling their artwork; you'll be present at their booth and inform visitors that the artist will return shortly. This role entails a combination of walking and sitting, offering both sunlit and shaded areas. We're aiming for five volunteers per shift.

Volunteer "How-to's"
Check-In
Report to the volunteer headquarters at the Information Tent on the east side of the Event Center. Our volunteer coordinator will direct you to your assignment. Arrive 15 minutes before your shift. Wear comfortable shoes and sunscreen. While Utah summers are typically hot, occasional thunderstorms might occur, so bring a light jacket if rain is forecasted. Leave valuables in your car or at home as we lack lockers and cannot be responsible for them.
Parking
Volunteer parking will be available in the reserved parking section in the northwest corner of the fairgrounds. Volunteers will give their name to attendants for admittance.
Amenities
Volunteers receive a Summerfest Arts Faire Volunteer T-shirt. Drinks and snacks are provided at our Information Booth.
