Volunteer: Event Prep Helpers - Minecraft Themed

This month our center will be hosting a Minecraft-themed family night. We need volunteers to help make large 3D Minecraft characters out of cardboard boxes, colored paper, and paint as decorations for the event. We will likely be decorating dozens of boxes. 

Our family night is 11/20, so if you are artistic and interested, please reach out! We hope to begin prepping this week.

(Reach out first about days and times that work for you.)
