Call for Volunteers and Planning Partners

The Taber Art Gallery, in partnership with Holyoke Art, requests applications for volunteers and partners interested in planning the first Holyoke Paper Festival. Set to take place over 4 days in late May in downtown Holyoke, the HPF is a fine art festival of exhibitions, workshops, lectures, and celebrations of the medium of paper and Holyoke's history as The Paper City.

We hope that this becomes an annual event, a staple of the Western Mass region, as well as a forum for art and dialogue on contemporary issues through the presentation of art made in, with, of, and about paper.

Anyone interested can apply at https://taber.fillout.com/hpf-planning

Complete the form if you:

• enjoy planning events that celebrate your community
• work with an organization that would be a good fit as a planning partner
• love the history and possibilities of paper
• or some reason we haven't thought of!

Eligibility

Applications are limited to adults in the Northeast Region who are able to occasionally meet in-person for planning meetings, regularly attend virtual planning meetings, and are committed to being in-person for the duration of the festival.
