About Global Festival 2016

The Global Festival is back on Sunday, November 13th at the MSU Union from 1-6p.m.

We are looking for volunteers to work on two different days: first to help set up and prepare the event spaces on Friday the 11th, and then to finish the set up and help the event run on Sunday the 13th.

We need volunteers to help set up the World Gift Shop (which raises funds for international student scholarships), assist in running performance rehearsals for the talent show, and prepare the Union space for the Festival on Friday and Sunday morning.
Then we will need help staffing welcome tables, handing out programs, greeting and directing visitors and more, so read through the options, and sign-up!

Questions? Please contact Joy at [email protected] to find out more about the Global Festival and how you can help!

There is no application process -- only a willingness to help and appreciation of other cultures! We will give you a brief training/orientation upon your arrival to the MSU Union for your shift.
