We’re creating an open and inclusive event that benefits the neighborhood by sharing artistic projects and encouraging community interaction and dialogue. BOS brings the neighborhood’s thousands of artists and performers out into the streets and in view of each other, other community residents, and the general public – we hope to see you here!

Join the BOS2012 All-Stars!

Arts in Bushwick is an all-volunteer organization, and we need you!  This year, one of our top priorities is to engage a large number of Festival participants as volunteers and organizers. We have seen an outstanding level of support for Bushwick Open Studios, and have a wonderful team in place, but there are still many integral roles to fill.  This is where you can play a major part of making BOS happen by becoming a BOS2012 All-Star.

The All-Stars are a leadership team, committed to making the festival a success through organizing their neighbors and assisting with festival operations. All-Stars will receive special recognition in the festival program & web directory in exchange for committing 10 or more volunteer hours to help organize and produce the festival.

To become an All-Star or get more info about general volunteering, check out our volunteer needs, come to a meeting or mixer, and join our Google Group to stay in the loop.  You can also email specific volunteer related questions to volunteer@artsinbushwick.org at any time.
