Volunteer at the See Beyond Festival — Help Create an Accessible Community Celebration!

Looking for a fun, meaningful way to volunteer in Baltimore? Join us for the 2026 See Beyond Festival at The Maryland School for the Blind (MSB)!

Saturday, October 3, 2026

Festival Hours: 11 a.m.–3 p.m.

The Maryland School for the Blind | Baltimore, Maryland

The See Beyond Festival is a free, family-friendly community event that invites people of all ages and abilities to experience accessibility in action. Thousands of visitors have joined us over the years to try adaptive sports, explore accessible technology, participate in hands-on and sensory activities, enjoy live entertainment and food, and discover how creativity and thoughtful adaptations can make experiences more accessible to everyone.

At the heart of the festival is a simple idea: with the right tools, opportunities, and adaptations, people who are blind or have low vision can do just about anything.

We Need Volunteers!

You don't need previous experience with blindness, accessibility, or MSB to volunteer. We’re looking for friendly, dependable people who enjoy helping others and want to contribute to a welcoming community event.

Volunteer opportunities may include:

• Welcoming and directing festival guests
• Helping with registration and information
• Supporting adaptive sports and hands-on activities
• Assisting with family and children’s activities
• Helping guests navigate the festival
• Providing general event support wherever an extra set of hands is needed

We'll provide the information and guidance you need for your assignment.

This is a great opportunity for individual volunteers, students, community organizations, corporate groups, and anyone looking to give back while learning more about accessibility and inclusion.

Come spend the day with us, meet some incredible people, and help create an event where everyone is invited to participate, explore, and See Beyond what they thought was possible.

We’d love to have you on the team.
