Volunteers

We need help putting the frame together, weaving the hammock on site, monitoring the hammock during the day while it is up on the Greenway, and then finally taking down the frame in September.  We are also looking for ideas and volunteers for special events to hold at the hammock (i.e. kid’s story time on the hammock).

Each of the tasks listed has its own link.  You can click on the link and pick the day and time you would like to help out.  Please include a contact number right next to your name.  We need a lot of help so please choose as many lots as you can!

Frame Assembly Team (August 11)
Weaving Team (August 11 – August 15)

The Volunteer Team…

is comprised of designers, students, and faculty brought together by design professor and architect, Hansy Better Barraza.
Together with Textile Collaborator Ruth Bohn, Structural Engineer Erik Nelson, and various sponsors, the hope is to create an interactive symbol of community.
