    Description

    Starry, Starry Night Crews!

    Interested in hanging out among the stars? Sign up here: https://volunteer.waterfire.org/need/detail/?need_id=788554

    Visitors to WaterFire can "wish upon a star" of their own at this magical installation in Memorial Park where large blue paper star lanterns are nestled in the treetops of this dark and dreamy grove. Volunteers are needed to help welcome visitors, assist in hanging stars, and placing Luminaria lanterns where they are needed. This is a quiet, yet busy location; volunteers can expect frequent interactions with visitors...

    WaterFire Volunteer Attire:

    • All black head to toe - you are a part of the art!
    • Closed toe shoes - there are many areas with cobblestone

    Suggestion: No large personal items and weather appropriate clothing.

    New! WaterFire ditches the plastic water bottle this season! Last season we eliminated the plastic from constructing the braziers and this season we want to reduce our carbon footprint by eliminating the need for single-use plastic bottles. We ask that you please bring a reusable water bottle to your shift and you will be able to refill on site.
