Applications to volunteer at the Emerging Writers’ Festival 2018 have now closed.

Do you like wearing colourful t-shirts? Are you good at answering questions? Then you might just be the perfect Emerging Writers’ Festival volunteer for our 2018 Festival. Our volunteers play a vital role in the festival and we couldn’t do it without them. If you’d like to help out at some of the best festival events going ‘round, meet other writers, and get an inside look at how an arts festival is run, apply to be part of the festival today!

Volunteer duties include assisting festival staff in ushering & checking tickets. Note that all volunteers must be able to commit to half a day on the Writers’ Conference weekend (June 23-24) plus two other festival events across Tuesday June 19 – Friday June 29.

There will also be a festival briefing on Monday June 4 at 5.15pm at The Wheeler Centre. It is essential that you are able to attend this event.

In return, volunteers will be given access to almost all events (except sold out events and Writers’ Night School events).

To apply, please provide the following information:

• Your contact details (name, phone number, email etc.)
• Your availability for the festival ( we understand this may change closer to the dates, but if you could give us a rough idea)
• Why you want to participate, plus any relevant skills or experience you might have.

We look forward to hearing from you!
