Got Fluff? It's not too late to join the volunteer crew at What the Fluff? A Tribute to Union Square Invention on Saturday. Volunteers are needed for two-hour shifts helping with kids' games, our unique stage shows, or at the infamous Fluffy's on the Square. Please contact Karin at volunteer@unionsquaremain.org if you can join us. September is here and that means it’s time for Fluff! September 29th is the 7th annual What the Fluff? A Tribute to Union Square Invention. Produced by Union Square Main Streets, "What the Fluff" celebrates the genius of Archibald Query who invented Fluff here in Union Sq. in 1917. This seventh annual event calls upon artists, musical and theatrical performers, inventors, humorists and the general public to celebrate the great American creation. We all know Fluff is out of this world and it's lighter than air, so for this go-around we explore Fluff in space. Fluffernutters were served at the International Space Station (it's true!) and we're bringing that space dust down to earth. Take that inspiration and may the Fluff be with you. Volunteers are needed for two-hour shifts in a wide variety of tasks – from penny candy booth to kiddie games to the cooking contest, there are jobs to fit every personality. There are opportunities for friends to work together, and for mature children to work with their parents. There are a few special opportunities prior to the festival as well - including designing fluff-themed trophies. The Festival is at Union Square Somerville on September 29th from 3 to 7 PM, with volunteers needed from noon until 8 PM.
