Ways to partcipate in Stitch 2007

Volunteer For Stitch
Want to join in the fun without interning? No problem, we need your help, too! There will be tons of small jobs opening up between now and the night of the show. Volunteers will be given free admission to Stitch as well as our undying appreciation. If you would like to volunteer a few hours of your time please write to Jesse at [email protected]. Please let us know if you are interested in volunteering the night of the show or during preproduction.

Donate To the Stitch Charity Raffle
Stitch is setting up the world’s greatest charity raffle ever. We need your help to make it super sweet! If you would like to donate goods or services for the raffle, please contact Jen . All donors will be listed with a big thank you in our program (projected distribution 2500+). You will also be invited to provide us with a stack of business cards or flyers to display next to your charity donation at the raffle booth. 100% of the proceeds from the raffle will be donated to the Stitch grant . That means the better the Stitch raffle the better the grant one of the talented Stitch participants will win! For more information on donating to the raffle please email [email protected].
Sponsor Stitch
Looking for a great way to support indie designers and crafters while advertising to a swarm of hip peeps? Well look no further! Stitch is seeking out sponsors to advertise in our program (projected distribution 2500+) as well as provide business cards, flyers, postcards, stickers or other swag that will be put in goodie bags and handed out to 200 Stitch attendees. Remember, last year’s show sold out, so we’re talking lots of people here! Want to get the word out about your business for just $100? Email Jennifer at [email protected]
