volunteer with the works!
The Works Art & Design Festival is the most unique, free event of its kind. It attracts artists, designers and patrons from around the world – boosting the city’s energy and imagination at the start of each summer.
Volunteers are at the heart of The Works Art & Design Festival. Without them, North America’s largest free outdoor art and design festival would not exist. We work closely with volunteers to provide the training and education needed to help us make art accessible to the public. We strive to ensure that every volunteer has a unique, exciting and personally fulfilling experience.
We at The Works value inclusivity, diversity, and accessibility in our volunteer base. We encourage anyone who may require accommodation to apply!
Volunteer Applications for the 2025 festival will open in February. To join our mailing list, please contact us using the forms below.
