Looking for a spiritual earth minded volunteer or intern to help coordinate our monthly full moon celebration, which takes place on the grass of an East Village community garden at sunset on the night of the full moon. There will be some set up, including putting down blankets, lighting candles, and creating the right vibe. The ceremonies usually last around 45 minutes but the whole thing should be less than two hours with setting up and take down. Super cool low stress event, great way for us to connect to community and respect for the planet and moon. This would take place once a month, you must commit for at least three months during the summer. First full moon ceremony will be Thursday May 23rd.

About Museum of Reclaimed Urban Space

Location:

155 Avenue C, New York, NY 10009, US

Mission Statement

The Museum of Reclaimed Urban Space (MoRUS) seeks to preserve history and promote scholarship of grassroots urban space activism by researching and archiving efforts to create community spaces, focusing especially on the efforts in the East Village and Lower East Side. We will also exhibit materials that document these actions, to educate people on the political implications of reclaimed space.

Description

The Museum of Reclaimed Urban Space (MoRUS) is a living archive of the Lower East Side’s squats and gardens. Located in the storefront of a historic building in the East Village of New York, the museum displays materials such as photographs, posters, zines, underground newspapers, comics, banners and buttons that show how local residents cleaned up vacant lots and buildings in the area, and made them organizing spaces for the community. The museum also offers tours on Saturdays and Sundays, which lead participants to the East Village’s most legendary community gardens, squats and sites of social change, and explain their compelling and rich histories.
