Bolm Studios Volunteers - East Weekends

I enjoy doing anything that supports the arts, so it was cool to be able to meet artists participating in this large annual event as well as Big Medium coordinators who helped make the East Austin Studio Tour possible. Volunteering for this event allowed me to see unique artwork and creations outside of what's available near campus (College of Fine Arts, Blanton Museum, Harry Ransom Center). I got to see their studio spaces, which is something that is worthwhile because of how personal and intimate it is.

During my shift, I greeted visitors, handed out brochures, catalogs, drinks, and collected donations for Big Medium.

It is a good feeling for those of us who are not artists to be able to lend a helping hand, no matter how small, to those who make Austin the wonderful city it is.
