Join the Heartbeat of the Festival – Volunteer With Us!
Passionate about art and community building? Keen to support the blossoming Black art scene in Kansas City? Then we invite you to join us in bringing the 18th & Vine Arts Festival to life!
As a volunteer, you'll have a chance to witness firsthand the vibrant fusion of cultures, music, and artistic expressions that define our festival. But beyond that, you'll be a vital part of a team that celebrates diversity and creativity, and that uplifts and inspires the local arts community.
Our volunteers help us in various areas including registration, main checkpoints, stage and entertainment, artist support, grounds support, cleaning, and even social media marketing, photography, and videography. Choose the area that speaks to you, and become a part of our mission!
Whether you can spare a few hours or commit to a full day, your time and effort make a world of difference. Our festival runs from Sept. 26 to Sep. 28, 2025, and we have shifts to accommodate everyone’s schedules.
For students seeking community service hours, we're happy to help! We can sign off on your volunteer hours to ensure you receive credit for your hard work.
So, are you ready to join the 18th & Vine Arts Festival family and make a significant impact in your community? Fill out the Volunteer Sign-up Form and get ready to be part of something extraordinary. Let's create art, culture, and history together!
