Volunteers Make ABQ CiQlovía Happen!
Each year ABQ CiQlovía event is powered by about 40-50 volunteers on event day. We hope you'll join us, meet others from the neighborhood, and enjoy your city in a whole new way.
How will volunteers help out?
Volunteers will have a variety of opportunities at CiQlovía 2023. Each role will have at least a morning and an afternoon shift. Volunteers will be provided with necessary materials and will be expected to complete shifts without supervision.
We encourage you to sign up to work the shift with friends or coworkers! Just send them the link to this page. Volunteers will receive a CiQlovía t-shirt (first come, first-serve) and a big thank-you from the CiQlovía Team!
We will reach out to registered volunteers closer to the date of the event with additional details.
Welcome Booth Volunteers will:
- Staff one of two Welcome Booths that will be positioned along the route at two strategic locations (West - corner of San Pedro Dr and Kathryn Ave; East - corner of Louisiana & Kathryn)
- Welcome guests by providing maps, tips for enjoying the event, and information about the day’s public activities
- Give guests basic information about where to find bathrooms and any events they may wish to attend
- Have guests check-in by placing stickers on the large visitor map
- Hand out any available swag to visitors
- Arrive for shift at least 5 minutes before shift time
What is CiQlovía?
CiQlovía is the Albuquerque version of the global phenomenon known as ciclovía or open streets. The word refers to events where city streets are closed to cars and opened up to people on foot and on bike, outdoor exercise classes, shopping, live music and other activities.
