VOLUNTEERS WANTED! | MIRAAS

MIRAAS is growing, and we’re looking for passionate people who want to help bring more South Asian arts, culture, and creative experiences to Calgary. Whether you’re interested in film, music, art, events, social media, marketing, community outreach, partnerships, or helping behind the scenes, there’s room for you here!

We are looking to create an amazing team of volunteers we can reach out to year round for help as needed for events. We understand that everyone has different schedules, commitments, and interests. Volunteering is flexible and based on your availability, so you can get involved when it works for you!

How you can get involved:

• Event Support: Set-up, tear-down, guest check-in, ticketing, ushering, and event coordination.
