VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITY // Be Part of the 2011 DUMBO Arts Festival

 

The DUMBO Arts Festival is Brooklyn's biggest annual arts event, bringing together 200,000 visitors, more than 500 artists, 100 studios, 50 galleries and stages, 100 programming partners...and, if you'd like: you.

This year's festival runs from Friday, September 23 through Sunday, September 25, and organizers are looking for volunteers to help out both before and during the event:

This year we are searching for volunteers who can devote some of their time between Friday, September 16th and Thursday, September 22nd, as well as, the three days of the Festival itself.

The activities you might engage in include assisting exhibiting artists with installation of their works, guiding attendees through and between the various exhibits, lending a hand at one of our performance stages, or helping the next generation of artists at our children’s creation station.

They are also looking for a few volunteers who can start working on specific projects early on in September.

Meet some new folks, hang with some of the city's premiere artists and see some mind-blowing work -- in other words: Go fill out the volunteer form now.
