Get Involved
There are lots of ways to get involved with The Grrrlz Rock Festival. Not only do we ADORE help… we require it. We want it. We CRAVE it… We BEG for it! It takes a lot of people coming together to share their time and talents to pull this thing off. In 2006 Cindy Ingram, founder of Grrrlz Rock, started out all by herself. Now, four years later, the team of volunteers and interns have grown to about 30! We don't want to be greedy... but MORE PLEASE!
Here are a list of ideas for getting plugged into Grrrlz Rock. This is not an exclusive list. It’s a list of ideas to get you thinking. Chances are you have an amazingly weird or unique skill that you could contribute. Contact us and let us know! Really.
- Be a best Guest Blogger- Write anything related to women, the arts and feminism and we’ll post it!
- Contribute to the Opening Reception Art Show- Think vagina!
- Bring a dish to the potluck- Everyone loves food!
- Help us publish a Grrrlz Rock WIKI- it's kinda technical.
- Be a sponsor- It’s too late to get logos on stuff for this year, but how about 2010?
- Donate money to SASS in support of Grrrlz Rock- It’s all about the Benjamin’s, Ladies!
