Events - Spirits in the Gardens - "Stage Hands" (event assistants)
Activity Description
What is a stagehand? Stagehands are essential behind-the-scenes workers in live entertainment. They are responsible for a wide range of tasks, from setting up and dismantling sets, props, and equipment to assisting with lighting, sound, and special effects. As stagehands for Spirits, you'll help us with set-up, path lighting, hay bale installation, placing pumpkins, clean-up, supporting events staff, and tear-down.
- Pumpkin Prep Support: During our busiest evening shifts of pumpkin prep, support our staff with assisting our pumpkin HQ, moving pumpkins, cleaning up after groups leave, and washing tools.
- Clean-up: On the Tuesday after Spirits in the gardens, volunteers will help us scrub every memory (and the guts) of pumpkins away from our indoor horticulture racks (and possibly some tables and chairs). There is bleach involved, so dress accordingly!
