"A Celebration of the Arts for Children with Disabilities" is one of our most rewarding events. You'll be working one on one with children with various disabilities on one of their only opportunities to take a field trip outside of school. Volunteers are needed to escort the groups around our campus to the different activities available (these are scheduled and volunteers are given a timetable to stick to). Other volunteers are needed to be stationed at the the arts tables, to help facilitate the art activities. Please keep in mind we truly rely on volunteers for this event, so if you make the commitment we really ask that you be there.
The shift time is 8:00am to 11:00am. We provide coffee and donuts in the morning. Attire should be weather appropriate, as most activities are outside. Make sure you're comfortable on your feet as many positions require walking.
Thank you and we hope to have you at the amazing event!
