Portland Rose Festival Grand Floral Parade What to expect
The decorating facility As a volunteer decorator, you will be working in one of two large warehouses. These buildings have big open doors, and are not heated. When you arrive When you arrive at Studio Concepts, you will find a "decorator check-in" tent in the street between the two buildings. The people at the tent will be able to direct you to the float you are assigned to work on. Clothing It is often cooler inside the buildings than outside, so please come prepared with warm clothes. As a volunteer decorator, you will work with adhesives, wet floral materials, and occasionally paint. You may also be climbing around on dirty scaffolding and ladders. Please wear clothes which can get dirty and possibly damaged. Food There is no food available for purchase inside Studio Concepts, although food vendors sometimes set up in the street between the two buildings. These vendors set their own schedule, and can not be counted on to be present when you get hungry. There are several restaurants a few blocks away, and pizza can be ordered for delivery. Where we are Studio Concepts is located in the Northwest Portland industrial area. The address is: 2448 NW 28th Ave. |
