Do you enjoy being creative and helping others do the same? We’re looking for a volunteer for a creative club for young people who’d like to lead an inspiring and safe activity once every two weeks.
Together with a group of young people aged 18 to 27, you’ll engage in creative activities such as drawing, painting, working with clay, or other forms of visual art. It’s not about creating a perfect work of art, but about relaxation, socializing, and being able to express yourself.
What are you going to do?
You’ll lead a creative group activity in which young people work together. You’ll create a pleasant, safe, and welcoming atmosphere where everyone feels at home. You’ll guide the activity while also leaving room for ideas and initiative from the group.
Through your presence, you provide structure, encourage creativity, and serve as a familiar face for the participants.
Who are we looking for?
You don’t have to be a professional artist. However, we do think it’s important that you:
- enjoy creative activities such as drawing, painting, arts and crafts, or working with clay;
- enjoy working with young people aged 18 to 27;
- have an open, patient, and positive attitude;
- can create a safe and relaxed atmosphere;
- are available once every two weeks on Mondays from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.;
- are willing to commit for at least half a year.
What do you get from us?
- Professional guidance from a dedicated coordinator.
- Free training sessions and workshops through the Volunteer Academy.
- Reimbursement for expenses and travel costs.
- The opportunity to use your creativity to help young people who can really benefit from it.
- A friendly group and plenty of room for your own ideas.
