The 5th Annual Roslindale Open Studios is seeking volunteers to help promote and work the event Saturday November 6 and Sunday November 7, 2009. The event will be from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.  


Volunteer for the event
We are seeking volunteers for 2 hour shifts to greet visitors at the group locations on Saturday and Sunday between the hours of 11 a.m. and 5 p.m.. The group locations are Longfellow House, 885 South Street, Roslindale House, 120 Poplar Street, Boston School of Modern Language, 814 South Street and Sacred Heart School Auditorium, 1035 Canterbury Street.

If you are planning on attending Roslindale Open Studios, why not make a day of it and volunteer before or after your visit to the art venues. Art Ambassadors provide a valuable service to the community and help to make the visitors' and artists' experience organized and enjoyable. It is fun and rewarding!


Promote the event
We are seeking volunteers to distribute posters and flyers prior to the event in Roslindale and all surrounding communities - Jamaica Plain, Dedham, Hyde Park, Cambridge, Mattapan, Roxbury, South End, West Roxbury, Milton, Needham, South Shore, North Shore and everywhere.


If you can give a few hours to support local art in the community call the ROS volunteer coordinator Alexis Hill at 617-894-3028 or email alexiskhill@gmail.com. Available times and locations are listed below. We appreciate your support and thank you.
