The New Britain Museum of American Art will be hosting its second Annual Fandom Fest! Come celebrate illustration and the world of Heroes vs. Villains. Engage your fantasies and geek out on everything fandom-vintage and new. This event is inspired by the Robert Lesser Collection of Pulp Art at the Museum. The event will have live music, interactive entertainment, access to the Museum galleries, a photobooth, vendors selling comics, collectibles, and novelties, a cafe takeover, and cocktails inspired by fandom classics. Volunteer shifts will be about 2 hours long to help with vendor load-in, decorating the space, check-in, etc.To learn more about the event, click the link below:Fandom Fest, Saturday, September 12, 2026 2:00 PM | New Britain Museum of American ArtInterested in Volunteering?

We are hosting a charity wiffle ball tournament to benefit special Olympics CT. While it is a full day for us hosting the event, we are looking for volunteers in either 4 or 8 hour blocks. We will be arriving at the field for 7am, but volunteers can choose what time works best for them. We are looking for assistance with checking teams in, score keepers, timers, and possibly concessions. It is very easy work, but the benefits are immense to our special olympic athletes. Any questions, please feel to reach out to me, Matthew Butkiewicz at 860-826-3120 or send me an email, matthew.butkiewicz@newbritainct.gov.

Tonight's event will be a classic Halloween party with cash bar, food vendors, VIP area, costume contest, photobooth, DJ, a Haunted Manor and garden installation by Grymm Studios, and much more. The event runs from 8:00pm to 11:00pm with two hour Volunteer shifts throughout the evening. Volunteers will help check-in guests, set-up decorations, help with vendor load-in, keep the museum tidy throughout the night, maintain the VIP craft station, and will be able to enjoy the event for Free after their Volunteer shift. Volunteers are encouraged to come in their own Halloween costumes if they would like to. As an art museum, many people get creative!
