Our committees include: 5-K Run, Advertising & PR, Artists, Beer/Wine,
Coke, Concessions, Directory, Entertainment, Finance, Food Court, Grants, Headquarters, Ice, Judges, KidsWorld, Oasis, Park-N-Ride,
Patrons, Photography, Production, Recyclables, Scholarship/Auction, Security,

volunteers whose skills and talents will be put to good use!
Committee members
are required to attend at least 50% of the general meetings or their chosen
committee meetings. General meetings are normally held Wednesday evenings
at the Henegar Center, 625 East New Haven Avenue in Melbourne from 6:00
PM - 7:00 PM.
Weekend Volunteers
For those of you who
feel being a committee member is not the level of commitment that interests
you at this time, and just want to help for at least three hours the weekend
of the Festival, you are welcomed as a Festival Weekend Volunteer. Just
let the Volunteer chairperson know at a meeting, e-mail mafinfo@melbournearts.org,
or call the office (321-722-1964) and let us know how to contact you in
February.
Weekend volunteers, please report in at the Volunteer Tent when you
arrive; it's located at the point where New Haven meets Melbourne
Court, just west of the railroad tracks. Thank you!
