Volunteers Needed - Austin Maker Faire

Volunteers Needed - Austin Maker Faire
Saturday, May 3rd | 11:00 AM – 5:00 PM
Genesis Creative Collective

We’re excited to share that Asmbly Makerspace will have a booth at this year’s Austin Maker Faire, and we’re reaching out to our community for support in making it a success!

Our booth will highlight our ceramics studio, as well as activities from our upcoming Maker Camp. We’ll be providing three hands on activities:

Ceramics Demonstrations – try the pottery wheel and create a small piece (like our recent Ceramics grand opening event!)

Leather Stamping – create a custom bookmark using our leatherworking tools

Tabletop Game Play – explore original games created at Asmbly, similar to those made in our Tabletop Gaming camp

This is a great opportunity to showcase the creativity and spirit of Asmbly—and we can’t do it without your help.

We’re Looking for Volunteers!

Whether you’re available for a 2-hour shift (or more), or can help with setup/cleanup, your support will make a big difference. We’re hoping to finalize our volunteer team by April 30th. We don’t necessarily have to have all three of these activities going at once, and can be flexible on timing since it is a fairly long event.

Volunteer Roles Available:

Cleanup (1 person)

  • Larger vehicle to take pottery wheels, table/chairs, other items back to Asmbly

Ceramics Activity (3 volunteers, 2-hour shifts)

  • Wheel experience necessary

Leather Activity (3 volunteers, 2-hour shifts)

  • Leather experience necessary

Tabletop Games (3 volunteers, 2-hour shifts)

  • No experience necessary - games and instructions provided

General Booth (3 Volunteers, 2 hour shifts)

  • No experience necessary

If you would be interested in volunteering in any of these ways, please let me know!

Thank you for helping us represent Asmbly and inspire future makers. We hope to see you there!

Reply is great, thanks Tommy! I’ll message you more details!

Put me down as tentative. I need to confirm with my wife that we don’t have something already planned…I’ll confirm this tomorrow.
