Knoxville Botanical Garden and Arboretum

Join our crew to help build the setup for our biggest event of the year! You'll unload and position tables, set up chairs, and wrap decorative plants to transform the grounds into a party-ready venue ahead of gala weekend. It's hands-on work that lays the foundation for the next crew to finish the job. 

Duties:

• Unload and place round dinner tables across the event site
• Position bar and auction tables, and assemble cocktail tables under the big tent
• Set up chairs at all dinner tables
• Burlap-wrap and tie ribbons on decorative potted plants
• Help clear space and set the stage for the next setup crew

Physical Requirements: A physical effort - carrying, unfolding, and positioning tables, chairs, and potted plants across grass and dirt for the full 3-hour shift. Outdoor terrain, rain or shine (mostly under tent cover).

What to Wear: Sturdy closed-toe shoes required (sneakers or boots). Work clothes, sun protection, and work gloves strongly recommended.

Perks: Fresh morning coffee and bagels provided! Also, if you can only work part of this shift, that is ok! Just let us know ahead of time.
