PyTexas is entirely run by volunteer effort, and we can never have too much help! If you’d like to lend a hand, please let us know, and help us make PyTexas a great experience for everyone.
Each year we ask our attendees to get involved and help us make this event successful. These positions are purely volunteer - we unfortunately can not offer free admittance or other compensation to our volunteers, however, we are committed to providing financial assistance to people who might otherwise be unable to attend.
