As I'm sure everyone can imagine, putting together a festival of this magnitude takes a village....and it most certainly wouldn't happen without a large group of volunteers. Each event during the festival will be raising money for a different organization that is working to end violence against women and girls, so the goal is to keep the overhead costs as low as possible. Makes sense, right?
With the generosity of our beautiful venues, and the time and talent of our committee members (we call ourselves the RI Pussy Posse!) most of the work is done, but on the actual day of each event, it's the volunteers who make it happen.
What do volunteers do? Well, pretty much anything you can think of! From selling tickets at the door, to handing out programs and seating people, to applying makeup or helping backstage - there's certainly something for everyone!
So, do you have some time and energy that you'd like to donate to our festival? If so, please email us
at nrafi@hotmail.com and put VOLUNTEER in the subject line. Let us know what dates you're available (the festival runs from March 5 - 14, with most events in the evenings) and what it is you'd like to do. And please feel free to pass this information along to whomever you think would be interested. The more the merrier!
