ORGANIZATION: San Francisco International Arts Festival



Who We Are

Founded in 2002, SFIAF celebrates the arts by bringing together a global community of artists and audiences and by presenting innovative projects that focus on increasing human awareness and understanding within and across cultures.

SFIAF presents the work of innovative artists from the Bay Area and around the world; many of the international artists make their US debut at the Festival. From 2003-23, SFIAF and more than 100 presenting partners have coordinated, presented and/or produced performances by over 600 arts ensembles from California and 60 other countries, and presented hundreds of educational and community engagement activities with diverse communities.

In addition to working with larger institutions, SFIAF places a high priority on the participation of culturally diverse and smaller entities--in particular, communities whose histories have been marginalized or left out of the prevailing American narrative. Activating and supporting relationships between such organizations and artists is a key component of SFIAF.

This year's festival takes place at multiple venues in San Francisco's Mission District from May 1-12. There will be over 75 performances, ranging in genres from music, dance, performace art, and theater --and we need help at all of them!

The primary role of a volunteer is to usher patrons.

We ask that volunteers arrive 90 minutes before showtime and be available to stay 30 minutes after.

Added bonus: volunteers are included in our ticket count --so there will be a seat for you to enjoy the performance itself.

(volunteering at 1 performance=1 free ticket)

A full list of our calandar events can be found at SFIAF.

If you would be interested in volunteering with us, please contact our volunteer coordinator at leah@sfiaf.org
