Photographer/Videographer Volunteers needed for Holiday Celebration!

New York City NY

Description

The Actors Theatre Workshop, a nonprofit theater and community center that serves homeless children through the Builders of the New World program, needs experienced photographer and video volunteers to shoot our annual Holiday Celebration with the children on Wednesday, 12/14 from 2:00-8:00pm. Being displaced by homelessness does not always allow a child the opportunity to have a traditional family gathering complete with nutritious food and gifts. For decades, ATW has remained committed to running this award-winning programs even while arts funding has dwindled. We have done this by relying on people power. We need your support in our efforts to renew the profound expression of love, compassion, celebration and giving this holiday season. Our annual Holiday Celebration is an opportunity for the children to reconnect with their dreams and the essence of the Holiday Season.
