TEND: Art & Culture in Practice

TEND recognizes care, presence, and joy as living art and cultural work. Through senior meals and activities, dignity-centered support for unhoused neighbors, and youth participation and joy, TEND places art where it has always lived: in kitchens, community spaces, seasonal gatherings, and intergenerational moments of care.

Volunteering

Volunteering with Art at Vibe means showing up where art and culture live every day, in kitchens, community spaces, youth programs, and intergenerational gatherings. Volunteers support TEND: Art & Culture in Practice by assisting with senior meals and activities, dignity-centered efforts for unhoused neighbors, youth joy programs, and community events rooted in care and presence.

As a volunteer, you’ll work alongside artists, organizers, elders, youth, and neighbors to help create welcoming, thoughtful experiences. Whether you’re helping prepare a meal, supporting a youth activity, assisting at a seasonal gathering, or lending your skills behind the scenes, your time helps sustain meaningful cultural work.

Volunteers may earn community service hours, gain hands-on experience in community arts and cultural practice, and build connections across generations and creative disciplines. Most importantly, you’ll be part of a collective effort that treats care, joy, and participation as essential cultural work.
If you’re interested in volunteering or have questions, we’d love to hear from you.
