Faire du Well

Welcome to the Shakespearean / Renaissance Festival in Mt Vernon, WA - a vibrant tapestry woven from the threads of many Renaissances from many Lands.

Step into our world, where Lutes & Laughter, Chivalry, Costumes, Food & Frivolity join with Merry Merchants, Jesters, Libations, & Shenanigans ~ all welcoming you to be your most Noble self.

Here, History dances with fantasy, does Battle with Boredom, and every turn of path reveals a character ready to whisk you into tales of intrigue, romance, and merriment.

Become Part of the Art - Become your best Character from Shakespeare (So much to inspire).
Be Royalty! A Faerie, Pirate, Ghost or a Knight!
Be a Clown, Jester, Foole, or Philosopher!
Take a class, learn a skill! All against the backdrop of Mt Vernon’s lush landscapes.
Costumed players recite Shakespeare and ask you to take a part!
Sing Along with the Musicians. Learn a Craft. Dance a MayPole!

This is no mere gathering—it’s an immersive romp through the Renaissance, filled with playful revelry, mouthwatering feasting, and a parade of characters who invite you to join the weaving of history and whimsy.

In Mt Vernon Washington, the Renaissance (learning from the past) lives, laughs, loves, and teaches us how to enjoy all of our Histories.

We will LIVE it! To YOUR Imagination!!

The Community/Family that a Ren Faire creates is a magical reality that lasts long after the last Patron goes home. That is how The Washington Shakespearean Festival works. We value your time, your ideas, your creativity. We work to bring JOY to the Patrons and to our Ren Faire Family. Everyone can get sun-burned and have a great time doing so at the same time.

We are under 35 days away from Opening Gate. Volunteers are the life-blood of this kind of effort. We can use your skills, no matter what they are. Below are SOME of the Committees and Teams we are forming now. Some just require a little time and feet on the ground. Some jobs require certifications and training. But all are welcomed. ALL!

We have volunteer opportunities in…

Logistics

A Thousand Errands Need to be done... a little at a time.

When we print 1,000 posters and 5,000 fliers, we need people to distribute them to markets, offices, barbershops, florists, schools, houses of worship and service groups, restaurants (and more - like your friends). Even Posting about the Faire on your Social Media helps!!!

Many hands = light work.

We will need help with logistics (parking, setting up/tearing down, taking tickets, customer service, giving merchants breaks, helping with the sound equipment… ) Building Props and Stages. Making Costumes, Games, and Signs.

And help with coordinating all these volunteers.

Administration

Tens of Thousands of Dollars will need to be tracked. Government entities need to be coordinated with and kept informed. Garbage, Power, Sewer, Health Permits, Talent Contracts… all have to be signed onto and made certain to be up to date and fairly monitored.

We need: Accountants, Book keepers, Liaisons with the City, County, Police, Fire, Hospitals, Security, Services, and more. We need banking services, Craft Services, Transportation, ADA, Hotel Coordination, and a Team to coordinate all the Performing Artists.
