Apraksts
Mistero Buffo is a small youth and cultural centre run by Circolo Arci Babilonia APS in Acireale, Sicily. We are looking for volunteers who are autonomous, proactive and willing to turn their own ideas into concrete activities for the local community. Each volunteer should arrive with at least one project idea to develop during the mobility, for example theatre, drawing, music, yoga, manual activities, board games, language courses, intercultural events or other cultural and social initiatives. Volunteers will also support the daily life of the centre, communication, preparation of spaces, events and team meetings. Activities take place mainly in the late afternoon and evening, with occasional weekend events. Before applying, please check our Instagram profile to understand our activities and the informal, community-based reality of Mistero Buffo: https://www.instagram.com/misterobuffoacireale/
