Volunteer at Vancouver New Music Festival 2012

Every year the Vancouver New Music rolls around later October (Thur 18th - Sat 20th) and I'm always excited to be a volunteer. I had a blast working the night shifts and got a chance to hear so really awesome music. Communications Assistant, Linda Hoffman and I have known each other a little over 3 years and I've always had a great time working with her for the Festival.
