Volunteer: Carousel Day volunteersHelp us with our annual festival Carousel Day on May 2nd 2026! What is Carousel Day? This is a festival in celebration of Glen Echo Park's 105-year-old Dentzel Carousel as it opens for the season! In addition to riding the carousel, families are welcome to enjoy many other FREE activities throughout the Park including performances, a spring parade and maypole celebration, hands-on arts & crafts, short film screenings, open artist studios & galleries, and lots more! This year’s Carousel Day performances will focus on music and dance from the African diaspora, in recognition of its influences over more than a century on American music and dance styles such as tap and hip hop. Live performances include: Sole Defined, National Hand Dance Association, The Eric Byrd Trio, Elements Dance Company...and more! How can you help? The early shift tasks will be helping set up performance spaces and information tents and craft tables with supplies and tables and chairs, and then helping with the flow of the event. The late shift tasks will start with helping with the flow of the event and then breaking down all the areas and putting supplies and chairs and tables away. Please specify if you prefer to volunteer 9am-1pm or 1-5pm or 9am-5pm.
