On Sunday, October 22nd, Walk Bike Nashville is hosting 2023 Open Streets! The event will close down Arthur Ave. from Buchanan to Jefferson Streets to vehicles from noon to 5:00 PM. We put on this event every year to highlight local businesses and help advocate for a more walkable, bikeable Nashville!
Volunteers needed to help with:
- Set-Up: We will be setting up the street from 11:00 AM to Noon on Sunday morning. We will be pitching tents, setting up vendors and street signs, and making sure the street is cleaned up ahead of the event.
- Breakdown: We will be wrapping up the event from 4:30 PM to 5:30 PM. Duties will include breaking down vendors and cleaning up trash along the route.
- Counter: The Counter will help gather data about Open Streets and its attendees. WBN has a specific way of determining how many people attend the event, and knowing this number helps us with future Open Streets. Shifts Available: 12:00 PM to 2:30 PM & 2:15 PM to 5:00 PM.
