Minneapolis Bent Festival Seeks Volunteers
The Bent Festival is an annual art and music festival celebrating DIY electronics, hardware hacking, and circuit bending. Each year we invite artists from across the country and around the globe to perform music with their home-made or circuit bent instruments, teach workshops to adults and children alike, create beautiful art installations and to generally come together, face to face, and showcase the state of the art in DIY electronics and circuit bending culture.
The Minneapolis Bent Festival will take place May 1st – 3rd at Intermedia Arts in Minneapolis and is seeking volunteers to work behind the scenes selling light concessions, general usher work and sound tech assistant. Here’s your opportunity to connect with artists and performers from all over the world and gain new insights about the unique world of circuit bending.
Festival volunteers will receive free admission to festival concerts.
