*Ready to Sign Up for Installation?*

Installation for The Art of Burning Man will take place from
*Friday, May 26 through Friday, June 2*.

We are seeking volunteers to assist our 6 Burning Man artists and artist
groups with the installation of their artworks on The Hermitage
grounds. *Volunteers
are encouraged to sign up for multiple full-day shifts,* but half-day
shifts will also be available. This is a fantastic opportunity to work
alongside Burning Man artists, and to contribute to the first exhibition
dedicated to the art of the annual Burning Man Festival.

Volunteers will be scheduled from 9AM-12 and from 1-5PM each day of
installation. Lunch will be provided to volunteers working a full day.
