Event Volunteers for the 2023
Monterey Bay Jade Festival

What Does a Volunteer Actually Do?

Volunteers will walk the event to provide a visual presence throughout the area and at the three entrances. Our goal is to ensure the safety and security of the event for visitors and the 45+ vendor booths. Volunteers will “mix and mingle” with visitors and vendors while wearing a “MBJF Staff” vest. There will be six volunteers walking the event at all times.

What is the Length of a Shift?

Each shift will be for a three hour period during which each volunteer will be rotated around the event to both walk the event in a designated area and also be stationed at one of the three entrances.

What Shifts Are Available to Sign-Up as a Volunteer?

There are seven shifts across the three-day event as illustrated in the table below:
