What?

The first Summer Vegan Festival in Varna is gearing up for a long weekend in June full of activities dedicated to the vegetarian and vegan ways of life. The program will cover a broad array of topics in the spheres of animal rights, health, ecology and spirituality. Events include lectures, discussions and product exhibitions, morning yoga and late night parties, as well as various other happenings under the slogan "For the people. For the animals. For nature."

Volunteers are needed to help the organizing team before and during the festival between 23 - 26 June. Choose your task from the list below:

• distribution of flyers and promo materials in Varna and Sofia (beginning in early June);
• taking photos at the events;
• video recording (with a DSLR camera);
• video editing;
• technical support (video wall, music, presentation slides);
• selection of background music;
• social media management (Twitter and Instagram);
• design of promo materials (by the end of April);
• anything else that you are good at and can contribute to the festival.

A detailed day-by-day program of the festival is available here (Bulgarian only).

You may join in only for a day or even for a few hours. Responsibilities will be assigned to accommodate the availability of all volunteers.
