Are you a writer? Join us!
If you identify as a writer, poet, storyteller, memoirist, or playwright, we want you on board!
Sign up to do a reading!
Sign up for a 5 minute time slot to read a piece of your work on the bus. Whether it's your first time reading or your hundredth, we're excited to have you join us. Simply pick a date/time, pick a short five minute piece to read (poetry, fiction, non-fiction, or drama), dress warmly, and arrive a few minutes before your appointed time. Remember, this is an all-ages event, so make sure your piece is something you'd feel comfortable reading in front of any age cohort.
Since you're out on ice anyway, consider signing up for a 2 1/2 hour Volunteer shift below!
Find directions to the Art Shanty Project on White Bear Lake here.

Volunteer your time during public weekends!
We need volunteers to help us staff the Vehicle of Expression on public weekends. Volunteers will help explain how the games work, clarify how the bus works to readers and passengers, help regulate the flow of traffic on and off the bus, and ensure that the area is tidy. Ideal volunteers will be friendly and polite, enjoy reading and/or writing, and not mind a bit of cold weather. There will be at least two volunteers for each shift and volunteers can opt to trade positions (inside/outside) as needed.
Since you're volunteering your time, consider doing a reading with us too! Sign up above.
