Become A Volunteer
We want you … to volunteer!
Volunteering is a great way to get a behind-the-scenes look at TypeCon. We’re looking for mature, enthusiastic, and hard-working students and professionals to help us during this summer’s event in Portland.
As a member of volunteer team, you’ll also have the opportunity to rub elbows (or dry transfer lettering) with famous (and infamous) typographic personalities. Make important contacts with attendees from a broad range of creative fields — industry and education alike. After the event, spruce up your resume with an impressive description of your various duties.
All volunteers receive free admission to the main conference and special evening events in exchange for their time and energy.
