Saturday (November 11th) from 7:30 am to 6 pm.

Volunteers for Friday night (6-8 pm), Saturday morning (7:30-9:30 am) and Saturday afternoon (4-6 pm) will need to be able to help vendors with load in and load out. This will require some possible heavy lifting and climbing of stairs.

Volunteers on Saturday from 10 am – 4 pm will greet attendees, answer questions and help make sure our vendors’ needs are met.

What do you get in exchange for volunteering (besides our undying gratitude)?

Volunteers will receive an Indie Knit & Spin Tote bag (Value of $15) with their first shift and two raffle tickets for each additional 2 hour shift.

Spaces are limited – please contact us ASAP at indieknitandspin@gmail.com to reserve your shift(s).
