Ladyfest Ottawa Volunteers Needed!
Info Meeting on Jan 31, 2012, 7pm at Bridgehead on Bank & Albert.
The not-so-secret ingredient to Ladyfest Ottawa’s (LFO) success is its volunteers, and we are recruiting!
LFO is a volunteer-driven, non-profit organization that is open to everyone. Since its inception, LFO has been showcasing women's artistic expression and sharing ideas through music festivals, performance, film & video, exhibitions, panels and workshops. We feel that providing a venue for women artists counters the obstacles and discrimination that women often face, including sexism, homophobia and racism. We try to address these issues in our events, along with encouraging a D.I.Y. (do-it-yourself), hands-on approach to skill sharing.
Our dedicated and multi-talented volunteers work tirelessly to make each LFO event notable. Everyone has a talent to share and all are welcome to join us!
What are we looking for in a volunteer?
- Reliability
- Comfortable working as part of a team in a fast-paced environment
- Organized
- Interested in music, arts, anti-racism, feminism and/or queer culture
- Sense of humour
We are especially in need of people with skills in:
- Accounting
- Graphic Design
- Social Media
- Event Planning
- Fundraising
If you would like to get more info about our plans for 2012 and volunteering with us, we will be having an Volunteer Information Meeting at Bridgehead (@ Bank & Albert) on Tues Jan 31st, 2012 at 7pm. If you can't make the meeting but are interested in being a part of LFO, please drop us a line at ladyfestottawa@gmail.com.
