Organized in partnership with Arts at Michigan, Artscapade is made possible by many volunteers who help make this event a success. Students, faculty, staff, alumni, and community members are all encouraged to sign up to volunteer! Volunteering at Artscapade is a great way to meet fellow students. All volunteers will have a quick training session earlier that week to make sure you're all set.
Interested volunteers can sign up here:
All students, faculty and staff on the Ann Arbor (including Michigan Medicine), Dearborn and Flint campuses are required to be vaccinated against COVID-19 and submit their vaccination information by August 30.
