Calling all volunteers!
This year we have upgraded our MINI Maker Faire to a full-blown MAKER FAIRE with Makers from all over the local and national level and we need you!
Due to unforeseen circumstances, we are shifting our Maker Faire to the spring of 2025. New date and location will be updated by Mid-November! Please check back!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The 2024 Shreveport-Bossier Maker Faire is being held on Saturday, September November 16, 2024 from 10 am – 5 pm at LSU Shreveport on the commons in front of the University Center building.
Why Volunteer?
The Maker Faire cannot happen without you! Many volunteers are needed to make this event possible. Please consider volunteering your time prior to, during, or after the event. Only through the help of many volunteers can we meet our goal of making this event an enjoyable experience for Makers and guests alike.
What would I do as a volunteer?
Tasks include everything from event setup, tear-down, assisting the Makers, admissions/ticketing, general assistance/runner, activity stations such as our soldering station, and many more. There’s something for everyone! With our web-based sign up, you can choose what you want to do and when you want to do it.
We will be updating volunteer needs until the start of the event. If none of these work, but you want to be notified of new positions, or if you have questions, comments, or special limitations of which we should be aware, feel free to reach out to us at Shreveportmakerfaire@gmail.com.
How do I get started?
Click here or use the logo to the right to sign up: Volunteer
NOTE: You do not have to become a SignUp Genius member to volunteer (but frankly it’s easier for you to revise your selections and for us to communicate with you.)
Note: Volunteers must be at least 18 years of age to volunteer on their own. Volunteers under 18 may participate, but they must have a parent/guardian/responsible party working with them during their shift. For instructions on how to sign up your volunteer(s) under the age of 18, please click the link to volunteer for more information.
Please note, we may solicit you to perform a different duty as tasks, last minute emergencies, and volunteers vary. We will work to ensure reassigned tasks are in keeping with your original request.
