ESC: Short time project! Reanimate the Caroling tradition with us!!

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

The short time project "Reanimate the Caroling tradition" is the perfect opportunity for people who are interested in theatre and music. For 59 days join us in this festive travelling parade where you perform an international medley of Carols. Continue with us the tradition our Association started. Our goal is to expand old local customs and enrich them with international ones. We want this event to be a cheerful celebration between people from different cultures. This project will give you the opportunity to experience different traditions in towns around Poland during Christmas time. We plan to perform in many locations in Poland and maybe abroad. The activity period will be divided into 3 parts - training for performing, travelling around with the performance, Carolling in villages and towns in our region. Join us in this project and experience event like no other! Check our volunteer instagram to see what we're up to: https://instagram.com/pocztowka_volunteers?igshid=ZDdkNTZiNT

🏠 Accommodation on site

We will provide the volunteers all their costs: both way tickets, money for food and pocket money. We also provide accommodation - volunteers will live in a hostel created in a former train station building with other volunteers in shared rooms (2-3 volunteers in a room). This place is located in Hajnówka town in Podlasie, a unique region in eastern Poland with a rich history and traditions, surrounded by beautiful Białowieza forest. During performances outside our town accommodation will be provided for volunteers. Transport will be provided or paid for.

🎒 Leisure activities

During the preparation period volunteers will get to know each other better during singing lessons and performing workshops. They will take an active part in preparing the whole performance, from proposing songs that can be performed during the parade to helping with preparing costumes. Songs will be performed in many different languages, volunteers will be taught how to perform them.

⚠️ Requirements

The Participant profile: As a part of the European Solidarity Corps we accept volunteers who are from 18 to 30 years old. We accept first volunteers with some knowledge and experience in singing or playing an instrument. It doesn’t have to be extensive, motivation and willingness to learn are most important for us.Sewing skills are also welcomed, we will probably need some help in making new costumes for performers and fixing old ones. What counts for us is willingness to work, openness and a good attitude. If you are willing, we work together and support each other-we make a team.Be a part of it. You are welcomed :)
Deadline: Application deadline: 31/10/2023

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).
