Get Involved in Festival! Stratford 2012

Editor's note: The following is a press release. The photos in the gallery to the right are images from last year's festival.

Are you interested in Stratford's vibrant theatre and arts community?

If you want to know more about Festival! Stratford 2012, get involved in the early stages and become part of Stratford's grand cultural legacy, join festival organizers at an informational volunteer meeting on Thursday, Feb. 9 at 7 p.m. at .

Thanks in part to the hard work and dedication of the 2011 volunteers, last year's great success numbers and audience feedback will be shared at the Feb. 9 meeting in addition to committee descriptions and needs.

The committee is seeking volunteers for the mid-August event to assist with communications, volunteer coordination, staffing, vending, ushering, parking management, donations/raffle and main stage support.

Based on the success of the 2011 festival, organizers are expecting an increased need for community and volunteer involvement. The two-week festival will include theatre and music performances, art exhibits, children's shows and so much more on the grounds of the American Festival (Shakespeare) Theatre.
