Art on the Lawn will be held this year on Sunday, June 12 from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm on Burpee Commons, and we need volunteers! Shifts run 2-3 hours or more or less depending on your schedule.

The routine shifts begin at 9am and include taking admissions, serving as "booth watchers” when the artist takes a break, or some odd jobs as they come up. We have more physically demanding jobs from 6am to 9:30am to help the artists unload their work and move it to their tent location—and then from 5pm to 7pm when the show is over to assist the artists in moving their work to their vehicle. For these chores we will also have assistance from several of our paid staff.

Coffee and rolls are available for free for the early shifts. All volunteers will get a Rockford College T-shirt and free admission to the Art Fair.

To volunteer for this event or if you have questions, please contact Michelle Borgialli at mborgialli@rockford.edu or 815-394-5111.
