Volunteer at NIGHT MARKET: Homegrown Colorado, Friday, July 31st

Civic Center Conservancy is currently recruiting one-time volunteers to help with the upcoming Civic Center NIGHT MARKET: Homegrown Colorado on Friday, July 31, 2026, 5-10pm at Civic Center Park (Bannock and 14th Ave). 

What better way to commemorate America’s 250th birthday and Colorado’s 150th birthday than with the Centennial State’s best homegrown products—including some of which were invented in this great state! As an official Colorado 150 celebration, Civic Center NIGHT MARKET: Homegrown Colorado on July 31, 2026, in Civic Center Park, alongside Denver Art Museum’s Untitled (DAMU) will showcase the diversity of Colorado’s most tasty and famous food, beverage, and culture through community.

NIGHT MARKET hosts an all-local marketplace with handcrafted art, wares, and nonprofit resources. No celebration is complete without some of Colorado’s favorite DJ’s spinning in a silent disco and live local bands. This family-friendly community-building celebration will fill your bellies and your hearts with Colorado pride as Denver’s pre-party for the state’s official Colorado Day celebrations.

Volunteer opportunities are diverse in nature, scope, and timing, including supporting vendor load-in and event setup, helping with guest wayfinding, and supporting load-out after the event.
