Volunteers Needed for Oregon City Festival of the Arts 2023

By Lynda Orzen, OCFOTA Coordinator

Volunteers Needed for Oregon City Festival of the Arts 2023

It’s that time again! Time to start forming committees for our big premier arts festival. The 2022 Festival was an enormous success, but it was coordinated by a handful of members-mostly board members. We need an army of volunteers for the 2023 event to make it even more successful. When volunteering for a position, you will be assisted by the previous year’s lead and not left on your own to “figure it out”. This is a professionally run event and we want everyone to be successful and that means teamwork!

There will be a meeting the end of January or beginning of February to begin planning. Below are some suggestions for volunteering.

Assistant Volunteer Coordinator: You’ll be assisting Kerry when she is traveling. The position would help recruit volunteers, communicate when there are questions and helping the weekend of the festival.

Food and Entertainment: These two committee chairs will be working with Sue Woodworth.

Silent Auction Coordinator: This committee will work with Cathy Rowe to learn how to reach out to artists and the community for auction items. The silent auction is where we make most of our profits from the event and very important for the future shows.

Signage Coordinator: Work with Lynda and Ingrid for reserving spaces to install our signage-cross street banner, billboard, light pole banners and set up large banner at site week before show.

Public Relations: Pass out postcards and posters
