Deltagarens profil
We're looking for a volunteer with a clear interest in contemporary circus who enjoys working with kids. This role within the organization relies on the ability of the participant to work independently. The participant should be engaged and creative, bring new ideas for activities and acts, enjoy movement, be communicative, and be comfortable with flexible working hours and days as life in the nonprofit sector can be unpredictable. Prior knowledge of circus is a plus. A volunteer will be obliged to also participate in BDC's events, work on a personal project, and organize a workshop.
