About the project

Queer Youth Festival Lila (Zürich ZH)

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

Milchjugend is a Swiss youth organization for lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans* and other young people who create spaces for themselves and their friends through conscious action. Young people are given the opportunity to express themselves, get to know each other and gain confidence. Milchjugend is going to organize a big festival for the 3rd time. The artists will explore gender, body and identity. Different forms of queer artistic creation interact with each other and a young crowd. Dance and performance art presented in a more intimate and connected venue will also have its place. The festival venue (a cultural centre at the outskirts of Zurich) will be transformed into a vibrant space of culture. Various artistic interventions will surprise, fascinate, irritate and excite the visitors.

💼 What the programme involves

You will help to set up the stage, the infrastructure and decorations for the festival, as well as dismantling the above-named things after the festival. Furthermore, you will assume various tasks during the festival itself. These tasks include assisting at the bar, helping with the electronic infrastructure, looking after the artists, doing some cleaning work, etc. You might have to work some hours at night during the festival.

🏠 Accommodation on site

The SCI volunteers will be accommodated in the apartments of our resident organisers - you can use the facilities there. Not all SCI volunteers will sleep in the same accommodation, but still spend the days together. Bring your own sleeping bag.

ℹ️ Additional information

• Milchjugend is an LGBT* organization. Volunteers who participate in this workcamp should be part of the LGBT* community or allies (but we welcome everybody who is open-minded). • There are no specific leisure activities planned, but you will be able to attend the festival for free. • Because the festival takes place from Friday to Sunday work during the weekend will be required, but that will make it possible to attend the festival.
