Volunteer

Support the New Deal Festival and Get Free Admission!

We need your help before, during, and after the New Deal Festival!

Please fill out our volunteer application if you’re interested in becoming a volunteer for our New Deal Festival on July 13th. Volunteering entitles you to FREE entry for the Festival events, including live music, craft show, car show, and so much more! 

As volunteers sign up, AHI staff will schedule them on a first-come-first-served basis. You will be notified of your time slot and position by AHI staff.

Morning, afternoon, and evening shifts are available–volunteer when your schedule allows. For students or others in need of volunteer hours for a program, let us know, and one of our staff will provide certification of your hours.

If you have any questions, please email mary.l@arthurdaleheritage.org. Please, no Facebook Messages!
