Craft Lake City Partners with Huge Brands at the 13th Annual DIY Festival

Volunteers are the backbone of the 13th Annual Craft Lake City® DIY Festival® Presented By Harmons, and Craft Lake City is pleased to announce Huge Brands as the official sponsor for our volunteer program. Huge Brands not only clothes more than 250 volunteers at the DIY Festival, they also provide a premium Volunteer Lounge for the hard-working team running the event. The Lounge provides DIY Festival volunteers with a comfortable place to rest and take breaks, fuel up, refresh and engage in fun conversation with other participants. Volunteers assist in all areas of the DIY Festival including assisting with production and event set-up, artisan load-in/out, decoration installation, food and beverage trailers, ticketing, VIP Area and Kid’s Area safety enforcement. Huge Brands facilitates both the easy identification of our volunteers among the crowd and the crucial morale needed for a successful DIY Festival.

“A big thank you to Huge Brands for their continued support and sponsorship of the DIY Festival volunteer program. With the support of Huge Brands we are able to provide our volunteers a better space to relax than last year as well as help us grow our volunteer program,” says Salvador Oregon-Torres, Volunteer coordinator for Craft Lake City.

In keeping with the Craft Lake City ethos, the organization is proud to be partnering with this Utah-local print shop for this celebration of the local arts. Huge Brands is acclaimed for its exemplary tailor-made customer experiences and consistent, high-quality screenprinting and embroidery work, and Craft Lake City is grateful for their continued sponsorship.
