VOLUNTEERS NEEDED!
The Peggy’s Cove Area Festival of the Arts is a celebration of our local talent, and a labour of love from our communities. That’s why volunteers are integral to the success of this event, and help bring the Festival to life.

Signage Team
Sandwich board signs set up in locations along Highways 3, 329, and 333 direct our visitors to events throughout the 10 day festival. We are looking for individuals to volunteer with setting up signs on July 3rd and again on July 8th, and picking up the signs at the end of the festival. If you have access to a truck or large car, please let us know. We also need help with the marquis sign at the Red Roof building property on July 2nd and July 8th.
Opening Reception
Volunteers at this event help by selling 50/50 tickets, collecting tickets at the door, setting up displays, and helping with take down.
