Welcome to our Volunteer page
The 2021 festival has a number of exciting opportunities to volunteer with our festival team.
Crafted Vancouver is a registered, not-for-profit, independent organization showcasing a curated programme of events under the Crafted Vancouver umbrella. We organize an annual 25-day festival celebrating multiple craft disciplines in a fresh festival format.
Launched in 2018, the festival features exceptional contemporary and traditional craftsmanship and craft-based work from a selection of local, national and international makers, the unknown and the celebrated.
The festival brings together people who make, feature or sell fine craft and craft appreciators who want to experience and learn about craft in smaller settings and intimate encounters.
Our goal is to provide volunteers with a valuable learning experience by engaging with our Event Partners and festival audience. By joining our enthusiastic team, you’re getting in on the ground floor as we work to create a leading craft festival for Vancouver and our national and international guests.
