Opportunity Description:

This Winter Solstice (Wednesday, December 21st, 2022) join us to celebrate the return of the sun.

There will be the meditative and beloved labyrinths: one at Granville Island, and one in Yaletown.
There will be lanterns, music, art and lights in the darkness.

Volunteers will help us make spaces beautiful, look after the labyrinths, help collect donations, assist performers, monitor visitor flow, and so much more.

Most roles are focused on the day of the solstice on Wednesday, December 21st, where the majority of the shifts are between 5pm and 11pm, though some roles will be available leading up to the one-day festival as well.

To volunteer you will be emailed a link to complete an Impact profile, and scheduling will occur via self-selecting suitable shifts and roles on MyImpact.
