A pair of volunteers take a break during last year's Sustainable Ballard Festival, which does not discriminate on the amount of legs or fur potential volunteers possess.
The sixth annual Sustainable Ballard Festival is approaching, and festival organizers are looking for volunteers.
Neighbors interested in helping out can fill out an online signup sheet here. All volunteers get swag from local businesses and a free T-shirt.
The Sustainable Ballard Festival is a community fair that showcases the activities and initiatives Ballard residents have been involved in throughout the year.
This year’s festival will feature live music, how-to workshops, educational activities, and local and sustainable businesses.
The festival takes place from noon to 5 p.m. on Sept. 26 and Sept. 27 at Ballard Commons Park.
The next volunteer orientation/work party will take place from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. on Sept. 3. The location has not yet been announced.
Anyone who is interested can contact festival volunteer coordinators at volunteer@fest.sustainableballard.org,
In addition to volunteers, festival organizers are looking for donations of seldom-worn T-shirts that can be turned into “logo-adorned festival fashion.”
