Harbourfront Centre SEEKS GEEKS
The BIG IDEA for HarbourKIDS this Thanksgiving weekend, October 12th and 13th is GEEK OUT!
We are exploring this idea with a variety of performances and interactive activities for families that are based on subjects that one can GEEK OUT on like: Video games, comics, reading, music, visual arts, fantasy, spelling and debating.
We are seeking like-minded individuals who love working with kids and love to GEEK OUT! There are plenty of super cool volunteer opportunities including helping kids build their own robot outfits, assisting at amazing workshops such as button making, 3-D glasses and Dungeons and Dragons and helping out in the electronic laboratory!
If you would like to be part of the GEEK Team please attend the Volunteer Recruitment Session on Saturday, September 6th at 2:00 pm in Miss Lou’s Room, Harbourfront Centre, 235 Queens Quay West.
