The Seafood Festival is the Long Island Maritime Museum's biggest event each year. Thousands of people attend throughout the weekend. Volunteers are needed in many different areas. These opportunities include tasks such as entrance ticket collection, ID checking for beer sales, promoting our volunteer-built raffle boat, and more. The festival runs from 11am - 6pm both Saturday 8/19 and Sunday 8/20. Shifts are typically held from 10:00am - 2:30pm and 2:00pm - 6:00pm, but we can certainly accommodate varying schedules. The festival takes a tremendous amount of work to run successfully. Volunteers are appreciated for any amount of time they can dedicate.
