Volunteers Needed During The Taste of WGBH Food & Wine Festival 9/14 - 9/18

Calling all food and wine enthusiasts!

WGBH is excited to host the fifth season of the Taste of WGBH Food & Wine Festival September 15-18, 2016. We are again collaborating with the best chefs, producers, wineries and breweries to deliver the finest food and wine in the region. The four-day festival will include an Opening Chef’s Gala Reception, The Artisan Taste, Brunch Bar and the return of the WGBH Food Fight. Thousands of guests are expected to join us for a weekend full of delicious festivities.

We need your help to ensure this year’s festival is even bigger and better than last year’s. Volunteer positions range from set-up crew, on-site event assistants and breakdown crew...this will be an amazing opportunity to get on-site events/festival experience and help produce one of Boston's most fun food festivals!
