Donation Opportunities

Your donation supports our nonprofit, Indie Lab Creative, and is applied directly to fest operations for things like venue rentals, volunteer meals, merch orders, and all things DICF!

How to support

🐸Join "Joel's Pals" (includes limited edition tee!)

Picture
Joel needs friends! Pledge to be one of "Joel's Pals" by making a recurring $7/month donation to Indie Lab Creative for one year (or a one-time $84 equivalent). All proceeds support the fest, and any "Pal of Joel" will receive this limited edition ringer tee featuring the frog king himself--not available at the merch booth! "Joel's Pals" donors have the option to be featured in a special section of our ILC website and our DICF Community Partners page. Anonymous donations also welcome.

Joel is one of our iconic mascots, most famous for his work on the DICF newsletter, The Festival Times. Now he has a shirt!
