Imperial Lates provide Imperial researchers with a fantastic opportunity to engage with members of the public through talks, live demonstrations, artistic collaborations and hands-on workshops.

- Managing talks and performance entry and turnaround
- Supporting researchers or artists taking part in a workshop or talk
- Helping us understand what people thought about the event

Why volunteer?
- Join a great team of people
- Shifts that are easy to book, change and cancel
- Full briefing before the event and support of a dedicated volunteer manager during your shift
- Meet people from across the College who you might never have spoken to otherwise!

About the Festival
This exciting annual celebration of science and the arts is a collaboration between Imperial and our cultural partners including the Science Museum, Natural History Museum, V&A and the Royal Albert Hall. Thousands of visitors attend each year to engage with our world-leading science and experience the arts in unique ways. But none of this would be possible without our Imperial community coming together to help make it happen.
