ETHNIC FEST Event Crew

Since 1986 the festival has featured the many cultures and ethnic groups that make Pierce County a great place to live. This is your opportunity to be a part of an event that celebrates music, dance, art, and foods from around the world! We have multiple areas where we can utilize volunteers during Ethnic Fest; whether it's set up or take down, or monitoring the gates or stage during the day, we cannot put on these wonderful events without awesome volunteers.  Encourage your friends to join you for a shift.  Then when you're done you can all explore the various booths highlighting handcrafts, clothing, art, and jewelry from local artisans and vendors featuring tasty treats from a variety of cultures, as well as hands on activities such as graffiti art from Fab 5, arts and crafts from around the world, African drumming, and alchemy skateboarding.  Ethnic Fest is right around the corner, don't miss your chance to be a part of it!
