Sommerwerft Theatre Festival

Cur síos

Volunteering for the sommerwerft gives the opportunity to 25 young people to come and volunteer for about a month with the association PROTAGON e.V. in Frankfurt-am-Main, Germany. The team of 25 people arrives a few days before the build-up of the festival starts. The volunteers will sleep in a living and working community, where about 160 people share a house and a big garden. To go to the festival place that is in the city center of Frankfurt, volunteers can take one of our bikes or use our shuttle service. The working tasks are NOT directly related to something artistical. Tasks include maintaining the community place, and helping to take care of a specific area of the festival (concert tent or stage, bar, caffee or food stand, children program...). The festival lasts 17 days. The activity ends up with 3 build-down days of the festival, and some extra days where volunteers are invited to reflect and celebrate together.

Volunteers will share their room with others. In the house, they will find the bathrooms, a breakfast hall, and other commodities such as a living room, a laundry... Food is provided in the community (with meat, vegetarian and vegan options) for breakfast and brunch, and later in the day at the festival place for lunch and dinner. Bikes and shuttle are available.

The participants should have two main qualities: - Be interested in cultural events, arts and artistic way of communication - Be ready to live in a community with a lot of other people (over 100 people) and know how to share a space in a good-mannered way. We expect politeness, respectful behaviours, solidarity and maturity among our team members. On our grounds, families and children are living with us. Workers have to wake up early and carry big responsibilities. We wish our volunteers to take the opportunity quite seriously. Our aim is to create bridges between cultures and generations.
