Volunteer on site at Convergence® 2024 - Wednesday, July 10

Category

Convergence

Description

 

Thank you for your interest in volunteering at HGA's Convergence® taking place July 11-17, 2024 in Wichita, Kansas. We could not put on a successful Convergence without the support of many volunteers. 

 

To make it easier to coordinate and find volunteer opportunities, we have set up volunteer registration by day. We have a variety of needs. Please review the description of each volunteer position before registering. Prior to Convergence, all volunteers will be asked to attend a brief Zoom session for training so we may answer any questions you may have.

 

Once you register, please be prepared to commit. Please be on time. If for some reason you need to cancel, please let HGA know ASAP so we can find a replacement.

  1. If you are not already logged into your account, first log in to My Account. 
  2. Click "register" and on the next page, you will see a list of volunteer options. Only select the times and positions for which you can commit.
  3. Complete your transaction.
  4. An email will confirm your volunteer registration.
 
Volunteer Positions - Wednesday:

 

Exhibit Installation: All but the wearable art exhibit will be installed on Wednesday. If we run out of time, exhibit installation may continue Thursday morning. The wearable art exhibit will be installed following Thursday night’s fashion show. Volunteers will be assigned to teams with each team assigned to an exhibit which they will work on installing until its completion which can take as little as 2 hours to as many as 10 hours. If your time is limited, please respond to your confirmation email so we may appropriately assign you to a team.

Fashion Show Model Fittings: Assist the Fashion Show Producer/Director in fitting the models for the show and organizing the artwork. Will require careful inspection and handling. Knowledge about the fibers is helpful. Experience with a steamer and/or iron is helpful.

Registration and Volunteer Check-In: At registration and check-in, these volunteers will be handing out goody bags, selling day passes, and checking-in volunteers.

Ticket Takers: Ticket takers are responsible for taking tickets before events and checking badges to make sure the attendee has the credentials to attend.

 

For assistance please call (678) 730-0010 Monday-Friday, 9 AM - 5 PM ET. We look forward to seeing you in Wichita!
