Red Centros Socioculturales: De todo para todos

Red de Centros Socioculturales del Ayuntamiento de Santiago de Compostela

Santiago de Compostela, Spain

Description

The volunteers will be integrated into the activities already developed in the Sociocultural Center for the residents of the neighbourhoods of Santiago de Compostela(6 possible locations: CSC Conxo, CSC O Ensanche, CSC Fontiñas, CSC Santa Marta, CSC Vite); for children, (play room, library, languages, storytelling, crafts ...), young people, (chess, languages, sports, dance ...), adults, (exhibitions, dances, photography, cooking , yoga, excursions, visits to the city ...), open activities, (trips, video ...), and activities related to local and national festivities, (Magosto, Christmas, Carnival, San Juan ...). We believe that the cultural baggage, the different perspectives and ways of working that a young European could contribute would be very interesting for the different target groups; senior citizens, adults, youth and children, and could greatly enrich the work of the sociocultural center.
