APAture 2026 Call for General Planning Committee Volunteers

Are you interested in helping shape APAture 2026? We invite community members, emerging arts leaders, and artists to join the General Planning Committee (GPC) as a volunteer or mentee.

APAture is powered by collective effort. Throughout the planning season, there will be opportunities to support the festival in meaningful ways, from jurying artist applications and serving as showcase hosts/MCs, to volunteering at individual events. 

A call for GPC volunteers will open on a rolling basis as planning progresses. 

Opportunities for GPC volunteers include the following:

  • April: Call for jurors to review APAture submissions (Visual Arts, Literary Arts, Film

  • July: Call for curators to assist in design of Visual Arts exhibition

  • September: Call for MC’s to host APAture showcases (Visual Arts, Literary Arts, Film)

  • October: Call for individual showcase support/event set-up
