The Sausalito Art Festival is an annual event, always held on Labor Day Weekend.  Gates are open on Saturday & Sunday from 9am to 6pm, and on Monday from 9am to 5pm.

How Does the Sausalito Art Festival Support the Community?
Artist Awards are granted to an artist in each category for outstanding craftsmanship and creativity.  Funds are awarded in Community Grants to help local non-profits grow programs.  And it funds The Sausalito Chamber of Commerce to produce year round events, public services, and Capital Grants to help keep the City of Sausalito beautiful.  For details, click on "proceeds" on the menu to your left.

Why Does the Sausalito Art Festival Need Volunteers?
With 40,000 Festival attendees, there is always plenty of work to be done.  With volunteer help and support, there are always enough hands and minds to make the Festival run like clockwork.  Over 1,000 volunteers are needed.

Who is a Typical Volunteer?
The perfect volunteer is a person just like you.  In their everyday lives, volunteers are lawyers, students, homemakers, doctors, construction workers, and even retired artists.  Volunteers are people who know how to have a good time and enjoy giving something back to their community.

What Do I Need to Know to Be a Volunteer?
The only thing you need to know to be a volunteer is how to have a good time and how to let others know that you are there to help!  You will be asked to attend a brief orientation.  This session is fun, you meet other volunteers, and enjoy the first preview of all Festival activities.

What Benefits Do I Get As a Volunteer?
While you do not get paid as a volunteer, you get the opportunity to meet exciting people, you will receive a commemorative Festival T-shirt, beverages, and admission to the Festival the day(s) you volunteer.

But, most of all, you will receive the satisfaction of helping support Sausalito's non-profit community.
