About the project

ESC: A Fling Call Swing

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

We are looking for musicians, dancers, artists and video makers to join a special art and culture project. The volunteers will create a Swing Music band that will offer concerts to the elderly and vulnerable people in the house for elderly people, mental handicapped hospital and other institutions. The loneliness has generated a significant increase in senile dementia, reduced mobility, depression and dependency among the vulnerable population. In fact, these concerts will not only become additional entertainment but above all an opportunity for social relations and the dissemination of healthy practices and healthy living. Also, we want to involve dancers of Lindy Hop in these events, so that they participate and unite in the emotional bonds between people of different generations through dance, and the residents of these institutions will also be invited to dance with them. The activities will also include the creation of mural art to make the project more visible.

🏠 Accommodation on site

The first days will be used to practise and for group dynamics, and therefore the group will stay at a remote house to be able to create a repertory. During the following days, they will be travelling to other locations. Food expenses are covered by De Amicitia (5 euros per day). The volunteers are meant to cook their meals.

🎒 Leisure activities

The volunteers will have an opportunity to live and play together in a group of people of different nationalities, so they can learn many interesting things from each other and raise their level of cultural tolerance. Also, it´s a great experience of working in a team, especially an international one. It´s a project where you can show all your talents and creativity.

⚠️ Requirements

The Participant profil: We are looking for young people who have good musical, dancing or artistic skills. If you are a photographer or a video maker, it will be a plus or we can accept a person that will only be in charge of creating content. We will appreciate it if interested potential volunteers could send us to [email protected] a video where we can evaluate your skills as a musician and artist together with a CV. Additionally, Spanish knowledge is very welcome.
Deadline: No application deadline
