Summer Events Need Your Help A Call for Volunteers-Projects 2K


Projects 2K
With Summer Solstice just a few weeks away Projects 2K is gearing up for another spectacular multi-media presentation in the Stony Creek Quarry.  Projects for a New Millennium was established in 1993 by Joy Wulke, environmental artist, as a non-profit corporation to create collaborative events that foster the fusing of art, science, and ecological concerns as a means of discovery, appreciation, and stewardship of the natural world. Joy passed away on February 25 but Projects for a New Millennium and its collaborators continue to aspire to extend presentations and educational programming illustrating a useful and wondrous philosophy of life, a worldview that celebrates our differences while recognizing the importance of our timeless common goals of peace and freedom in an environmentally sound world.  Terra Tractus: The Earth Moves celebrates the 20th Anniversary of P2K by providing spectacular, thought provoking and educational programming June 19, 20, 22 and June 25-29, 2014! This dynamic multi-media marvel tells the story of the quarry’s geological and human history through the past, present and future, through laser light, original music, kinetic sculpture, LED’s, dancers, projections, rock climbers, fireworks, shadow puppetry, pyrotechnics and much much more.

Many volunteers are needed for this spectacular event. Please contact
p2kvolunteer@gmail.com and consider giving some time in one or more of these positions:

Bus Shaman -  Like a bus monitor, this position requires the volunteer to interact with the public. The Bus Shaman will ride with each shuttle bus providing guests with a scripted, yet entertaining explanation of the history of Projects for a New Millennium, the overall performance schedule/endeavor, and provide only brief hints about the Terra Tractus experience.

Trail Guides - The Trail Guide volunteer will greet passengers as they offload from the buses at the Quarry, and corral them into groups of 10 to 16 to guide them up a designated secondary trail, culminating at the Box Office tent for ticket taking and last minute admission changes.

Production Assistants - The volunteer will work directly with the production crew. Knowledge of theater production is a plus, as well as experience with stage crew, lighting and/or audio equipment. Must be able to lift and carry up to 50 pounds. Must be comfortable on rough terrain.

Pre-Show Tai Chi (experience preferred but not absolutely necessary)
Assist in enhancing the pre-show quarry atmosphere 6pm-to show time. Each Tai Chi participant will be assigned a block at a strategic location to practice Tai Chi routines and poses.

Parking and Security - Volunteers will be scheduled up to 2 hours before show time (6p).  A limited amount of VIP tickets will be available for purchase which include parking on-site at the Quarry.  Volunteers will guide cars into provided parking areas and direct audience members to Trail Guides

VIP Area - Need 1 Bartender and 1 Artist Docent each night
