Opportunity Name:
Dix Park Fourth of July Celebration 2024

Description:

Join Dix Park during the City of Raleigh's Fourth of July Celebration!

 

Duties and Impact:

Volunteers will act as activity assistants with Artsplosure or our Green Team.

  • Artsplosure Assistants: Assist Artsplosure staff with art activities for the community. This will include the set up of art supplies, helping visitors with the craft, refilling supplies, and cleaning up before the firework show. Some of the featured activities include bracelet making, chalk board art, paper sculptures, bubbles, a community mural, and more! Volunteers will be spreading community spirit by helping park visitors get artistic!
  • Green Team: Volunteers will help keep the field clear and free of improperly discarded trash by picking it up with cleanup sticks and disposing of it in nearby trash bins and dumpsters. These volunteers may also assist with wayfinding, taking photos, and greeting visitors. By doing this, we are keeping the event space clean for all to enjoy.

Work Environment:

Work will take place on Big Field - a hilly, grassy terrain. There will be tents and plenty of water, but most of the work is out in the open. Green Team volunteers will be mobile, walking throughout the event space during the event. There will be port-o-johns on site. We are expecting large crowds. There will also be a DJ with music, and food trucks. We will supply water, snacks, sunscreen, and fun!

  • Ages 18+
  • Complete a release form for the calendar year (if prompted)

Other Instructions:

  • Hydrate the day before! This event takes place during the hottest time of the day
  • Wear comfortable, weather-appropriate clothing
