Information Booth and Reception

Volunteers at the information booth and reception must be well-versed in JapanFest. Your duties include providing information on all aspects of JapanFest, such as the schedule, locations, lost and found, ticketing, missing children, guiding performers, and volunteers.

 

You'll help sell T-shirts and other merchandise, be placed in the most central locations, and work closely with JapanFest staff.

Survey Taker

It is crucial to survey visitors and gain insight into their perceptions of the event. This information will inform future event planning and direction. The more people who participate in the survey, the more accurate the results will be.

 

Survey takers should possess excellent communication skills, be able to engage with people effectively, and manage the lines of people willing to take the survey for prizes.

​Many More Positions Available

There are many more positions available to suit your talent. We’d love to hear from you if you have a skill that could contribute to our event!

 

This is a great opportunity to experience volunteering at one-of-a-kind cultural event. You are expected to volunteer for 4 hours, and you can enjoy the rest of the day at JapanFest as a visitor. You will receive a volunteer T-shirt as a gift after your shift. This is a great resume builder for students. If you require documentation of your volunteer hours, please let us know, and we will provide a signature.
