Volunteer at the 11th Playhouse BuildFest!

What’s BuildFest?

Held from 9-2, Saturday, April 18th at Watauga High School (300 Go Pioneers Drive, Boone, NC 28607), BuildFest is a HUGE, free community event featuring more than 100 hands-on STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art and math) activities for kids aged 2-12, a giant Cardboard City for kids 5 and up, Tiny Town for kids under 5, Touch a Truck, the Amazing Science Show and much, much more.

We need help to pull off this cool event! Watauga High School is not far from ASU and is accessible by bus, car, or on foot. We will provide food for volunteers, training, and documentation of service hours. Most importantly, you'll have fun while sparking curiosity and joy in kids.

Lend a hand for a few hours as an Event Volunteer

If you would like to be part of the fun, but staffing a whole booth seems like too much, we would love to have you as an event volunteer where you just come for a few hours on Friday to help with set-up or on Saturday to help with activities planned by The Playhouse. Click here to sign up.

Host your own booth as an Activity Partner!

Update as of March 31st: Activity Partner registration is now closed. But you can still help as an Event Volunteer. Click here to signup!

This is for a group (at least 2-6 people) that hosts its own booth at BuildFest and staffs it for the whole event. It's a great option for class projects and great outreach for education, STEM, Arts, and service clubs.
