The Shaw Guild is a volunteer organization which supports and promotes The Shaw Festival. 
Each year, the Guild's efforts contribute thousands of volunteer hours toward many Shaw Festival activities. 
As well, we donate to the Shaw financially, with proceeds from our fundraising efforts.

Guild Volunteers participate in a variety of interesting Shaw activities from hosting and greeting patrons, gardening, fundraising and educational activities. They are also invited to exclusive behind-the-scenes events!
