Boro-Linc brings performances, workshops, and family-oriented programs by Lincoln Center resident organizations to communities across the five boroughs. Manny Cantor Center has been selected as the inaugural Boro-Linc partner in Manhattan and throughout the period from January to May. The Boro-Linc Launch Event will consist of a family art-making workship, a performance by Jazz, and an opening community party for the forthcoming Boro-Linc art exhibit. We will be helping with set-up, ushering, greeting, coat check, check-in, and clean-up. Volunteers get a t-shirt and a button. There are two shifts and very limited spots since they only need a few volunteers. Each person may only sign up for one shift since the shifts overlap. 

Ms. Sirianni is in need of 15 people each on Thursday, January 28th and Friday, January 29th from 9 A.M. to 3 P.M. to help set up crime scenes for her Forensic's students at Tech in room BN8. This event will be 25 points. Please sign in and sign out with our Secretary, Helen Ding. Be sure to bring your student ID's and enter through the northeast entrance. We will leave your names with the security guard.
