About the project

ESC: Art & Culture project in rural Germany

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

The culture house in Steinfurth is the perfect place for art and music in the middle of nature. In 2024 we are planning residencies for artists and can use your help to implement this idea! We support contemporary creation by hosting artists or artist teams in residence. Theatre, dance, music, or puppet theatres that take the audience beyond their comfort zone. We are committed to a sensitive and networked approach to art that is linked to artistic and cultural education and social cohesion as well as to the values of hospitality, equality and diversity. We are looking for volunteers to help us look after the artists, accompany their stay in organizational and practical matters, and support work and rehearsal processes. We expect an interest in artistic processes and empathy for the artists' working methods. Unfortunately, we cannot accept applications if a visa is needed. If you already have a valid visa (and your country of residence is not listed) please email us.

🏠 Accommodation on site

Our international volunteers have the opportunity to live in a flat at the Culture House. The flat has its own small kitchen, a small bathroom, and a tuned piano. In addition, the large studio is available for project work. Karlsburg train station is 2 km away from the Kulturhaus, Swinoujscie (PL) and Berlin can be reached in a few hours by regional train. To Greifswald it takes about 20 minutes. In addition, a bicycle is available for excursions.

ℹ️ Additional information

The project is implemented under the European Solidarity Corps Programme, financed by the European Commission.
The participating organisations have to be mindful of these needs as they are responsible for providing a respectful and trusting hosting environment. At the same time, the organisations participating in the initiative devote a great deal of time, energy and resources to set up a high-quality activity; they should therefore expect that European Solidarity Corps participants show a similar level of respect for the local communities and the people that are directly concerned by the activities (https://youth.europa.eu/solidarity/mission_en).
