About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

Loimaa Youth Services has been running volunteering projects since 2013. Now we are searching for two volunteers for a four month period from May (or beginning of June) to August. Volunteers will be working in culture services of Loimaa municipality (especially at Alpo Jaakola statuary park) and in local amateur theatre (summer/outdoor theatre). During summer months theatre is preparing and running a play in an outdoor theatre and cultural services have the statuary park open and arrange or are involved in different events & are responsible for the action of a traditional market square for vendors. Tasks can include for example customer service, working in a cafeteria, selling tickets, guiding foreign visitors, maintenance (cleaning, taking care of the environment), helping with PA/sound systems, building props for the theatre etc. ”In a small organisation everyone has to do a bit of everything” could be a guideline for the tasks involved.
