Art Market Set-Up Crew
One hundred seventy artists will arrive to set up the Art Market on
Saturday, May 15th, and we need volunteers to help from 6 am to 11
am. Set-up assistants will help artists find their spaces, locate
the artist hospitality center, and communicate as necessary with Artsplosure
staff members. Set-up crew members will be asked to attend one pre-festival
meeting during the week of May 10. |

Art Market Block Manager
Once load-in is complete, 4 block managers supervise sections of the
Market, handling requests from artists, including calling for “booth
sitters” during festival hours. The first shift works from 11 am to 2 pm,
the second shift, from 2 pm to 5 pm. Art Market Block Managers will be
asked to attend one pre-festival meeting during the week of May 10. |

"Booth Sitter"
During the festival, "sitters" occupy and look after exhibitors’ booths so
that artists may take short breaks. |

Festival Set-Up Crew
If you can work in the early morning hours, the production crew needs
help with miscellaneous tasks Saturday morning, 6 am until 11 am.
Most of this work is of a physical nature (climbing ladders and trees,
lifting and moving sound equipment, etc.). |
| |
|
 |
 |
| |

Festival Break-Down Crew
We also need assistance breaking down Sunday night between 6 pm
and 11 pm. Again, most of this work is of a physical nature. |

Greeter at Donation Station
"Donation Stations" at festival entrances encourage people to donate to
Artsplosure (you’d be amazed at how much it costs to put on a "free"
event). Volunteers greet visitors, actively seek contributions and hand
out event information at each station. If you like dealing with the public,
this is a great job for you. |

Performer, Artist and Volunteer Hospitality Assistant
This dedicated group of volunteers staffs, maintains and supplies
hospitality areas. Tasks include moving food, ice, and drinks to various
festival locations, and keeping service areas clean. |

Survey Assistant
Survey assistants roam the entire festival, interviewing people to
complete surveys about our festival. Also, after the event, we need help
tabulating the surveys (data entry at our office), and doing the statistical
analysis, if you are available. |

Performer Transportation
Some of our performers arrive by airplane, and we need a few drivers
on Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday of festival week to assist the
transportation coordinator with picking them up and delivering them to
their hotels. |
| |
|
 |
 |

General Help
If you sign up for this job, we put you where you can contribute
the most. Duties can include hanging signs, running supplies or
merchandise to various event sites, transporting equipment or artists,

gaps. |

Office Assistant
Starting in late April right up through the event, our office gets busy and
