The Skaneateles Festival comes to life each August through the gracious support of hundreds of volunteers. We are blessed with a community that is very willing to share their energy and talents. If you would like to help out just click the Volunteer Icon below to learn how to join the fun.

Volunteers provide food, lodging, transportation, muscle power, wisdom, ideas, gracious smiles, can-do spirit, and so much more.

Our volunteers consistently say that the best part about helping out with the Skaneateles Festival is getting to know the musicians on a personal level and making new connections in the community.

If you’d like to meet new people, get to know world-class musicians, or help out in any of these areas, email us at events@skanfest.org or fill out our volunteer form.

We invite you to consider becoming an important part of this season by hosting Festival musicians. This is a rare opportunity that requires very little! The musicians will need a bedroom, bathroom and breakfast. In return, you and your family will get a special peek into the life of the performer, and help contribute to bringing world class music here to Skaneateles!

Please complete the following short questionnaire so we may update our records as well as plan for the housing needs of this year’s musicians.

If you have any questions, please contact: housing@skanfest.org
