The Ottawa Grassroots Festival is a non-profit organization staffed entirely by volunteers. However, all the performers are paid, including those who present during the free daytime schedules. The OGF appeals to our followers for support in this community pursuit by buying tickets to evening concerts, participating in the silent auction, buying 50/50 tickets and making donations, all of which are accessible on this site and at the festival. In addition, you can support us by purchasing food and beverages, and OGF merchandise while at the festival.

Volunteer

Here are some things we can use your help with: sales (food, pin and CDs), surveys, signage, volunteer check-in, and the silent auction. If you are interested or know of anyone who might be interested in volunteering for OGF, contact us through the volunteer page. We would love to hear from you!
