The Worldfest planning is in full swing and we are looking for community members who are interested in helping to plan the event as well as local vendors and performers who are interested in taking part in this year's fest. 

The committee meets every 2-3 weeks, spread-out at first with frequency increasing as the event approaches. If you feel that the meetings may be too much of a commitment, we are also looking for people that would like to help by doing other outreach or tasks related to the event. Contact me and I can help find the best fit for you!
