Musikfest 2023 marks a historic milestone: it is the 40th year that we’ll be shutting down the streets of Bethlehem and turning the town into the Lehigh Valley’s biggest party of the summer. Each year, ArtsQuest relies on hundreds of volunteers throughout the community to help make this festival a success. We need help from business groups, social groups, and individuals at information booths, selling soda, keeping the area clean, staging crew, beer pourer, and so much more! Minimum age 15 or 14 with adult. Contact Cory Stevens, 610-332-1370, cstevens@artsquest.org. Website link- www.volunteerlv.org/opportunity/a0C4z00000VvwVEEAZ
Together, let’s transform our back deck patio in Bangor into a place of beauty and serenity for our residents to cherish. Bloom for Women, a sanctuary to survivors of sex trafficking and sexual exploitation, needs talented individuals with experience to repair or revamp our deck. This outdoor space serves as a tranquil haven for our residents, but it requires some much-needed attention.
