Volunteering at VTL

The VTL relies on an incredible group of volunteers who help make what we do possible.
We are actively looking for new volunteers in all areas!

Volunteers receive an orientation and have the opportunity to get involved in this community of builders and doers through workshops, in-shop interaction, and community building/volunteer appreciation events.

Fill out the Volunteer Inquiry form to see which areas we need volunteers for in the coming months.

Events
Setup/Take down – help organizers set up table or the event space
Event tabling assistant  – help with tabling at events. Talk about VTL and why you love supporting the tool library.
