If you have been to Celebrate the Arts! in years past, you know how exciting it is not only for the students, but for the volunteers. This year, we are looking to serve approximately 500 students from White County Schools. The students arrive by bus and visit different stations on the campus to experience various forms of artistic expression which include theater, drumming, dancing, singing and visual arts. The message within Celebrate the Arts! is inclusiveness and some of the artists/performers have disabilities or work with people who do.
The volunteer opportunities involve rotating groups of students and teachers around campus or helping out at the artistic stations.
- The students will be in five groups (each with a different color) and there is a need for two volunteers per group.
- Four volunteers will also be needed to help unload lunches from the buses, label them by group color and teacher name.
- Arrival time for volunteers is 8-8:15 a.m., in Community Hall. The event ends at Noon.
- There will be a Mandatory Disability Etiquette session conducted on May 8 from 4-5 p.m. in the Crittenden Conference Room. This will be extremely helpful as we interact with students. Volunteers working with youth are required to complete a background check. SNC has the paperwork and will cover the fee for each background check.
