ESC: Aruba ArtWeek

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

ArtWeek Aruba is a yearly festival that turns San Nicolas - the Art Capital of the Caribbean - into a vibrant space for art and community. The event celebrates Aruba’s cultural diversity through murals, exhibitions, performances, and public art. This 3-week ESC Team Volunteering project, organized by Echo in partnership with Tur Cos Ta Posibel, invites international volunteers to help set up and run the festival. Volunteers assist artists, support logistics, and help with communication. It’s a hands-on experience in event organization, creativity, and cultural exchange in a dynamic Caribbean environment. The only way to apply for this project is sending Motivational letter and CV to: [email protected] Hope to hear from you soon, good luck! :)

🏠 Accommodation on site

Volunteers will stay in a shared community house in Pos Chiquito, close to the main festival venues. Rooms are shared by 2 to 5 people. A food allowance will be provided via a bank card, covering groceries and household needs. Pocket money will be distributed individually upon arrival. The house is fully equipped for self-catering and is located just five minutes from the beach. Towels are provided. TCTP covers economy flights with hand luggage and transportation to and from the project site.

🎒 Leisure activities

During the project, volunteers will gain hands-on experience by helping set up and run a vibrant art fair. One of the core goals is to foster exchange between volunteers and the local community, artists, and organizers. You'll learn by doing, receive basic training and guidance from the team, and have the chance to contribute your own skills and creativity throughout the process.

⚠️ Requirements

The Participant profile: We are looking for proactive and physically fit volunteers who enjoy hands-on work and teamwork. Ideal candidates are ready to support the festival’s physical and logistical setup, including painting, prepping mural surfaces, organizing supplies, and lifting or moving materials. Volunteers should be comfortable performing manual labor, working outdoors, and assisting with cleaning and site preparation. A helpful attitude and willingness to support artists and team members with various on-site tasks are essential. No previous experience is required - just a positive, can-do mindset and readiness to get involved!
Deadline: 01/06/2026 22:30

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).
