Opportunities From: Florida State College at Jacksonville

Represent your country at International Education Week's Food & Culture Festival! Email laura.pitois@fscj.edu to ask if the International Club has your country's trifold display in stock; if not, we supply materials for you to make a one. You will stand at your country's table and chat with festival participants. Optional: wear traditional clothing and/or bring items decorate your table. This is a fun way to share your culture with the FSCJ community!

General Volunteers for the Food and Culture Festival will set up country displays; serve food; assist Laura Pitois with running the festival; clean up afterwards; return materials to storage. Note: if you want to represent your country at a country table, please see the International Club's Opportunity to volunteer as an Ambassador. This opportunity is for general volunteers only. Thank you!

Do you speak a second language? Volunteers will have a table in the Downtown Campus lobby, where they will give informal, one-on-one lessons to other students, in a fun, relaxed atmosphere.

You are welcome to bring books, worksheets, or games, or just bring yourself!
