Do you love work with clay? Join our art project!

Activity description

Our organisation aims to transform Târgu Frumos, a small town in Iași county Romania, in a cultural hub for the region. Among several art places we work in, we run a ceramic studio, with clay, tools, a potter's wheel and a professional kiln. We're looking for an artist with experience in ceramic art, to join our team! The tasks are to facilitate art workshops for children, youth and adults, design creative items for art exhibitions, cooperate with other artists and design unique installations to promote the local cultural heritage. Our volunteer program is very intense, but it will give you a great personal and professional experience. To apply, please fill in the form: https://forms.gle/UR5vzztdQpoqm1yv5. The preselected candidates will be contacted for the further steps: a case study and an interview. The infopack of the project can be consulted here: www.supertineri.org/2023/05/arts.html

Accommodation, food and transport arrangements

We will provide accommodation in double room, in our youth center (Act House, Cucuteni no.8, oraș Târgu Frumos, jud. Iași, Romania) - check it in 3D: https://my.matterport.com/show/?m=qfesimaqz6c. You will receive 150 euro/month (food money) and 4 euro/per day (pocket money). These money are enough for the living standards in Târgu Frumos. We will reimburse the travel costs based on a lump sum and we will help you figure out how to reach us. Târgu Frumos is a small and safe town, close to Iaşi. Iași is the second biggest city in Romania and it is considered the cultural capital of Romania.

Training during the activity

Our training programs include Romanian language, non-formal education and two trainings provided by the Romanian National Agency. You'll also have the chance to collaborate with other passionate volunteers and learn from former Arts Lab participants about their unique experiences. Our volunteers frequently describe Arts Lab as a life-changing experience, and we're committed to staying in touch for the long term. In fact, we're already planning a conference for all 100 Arts Lab volunteers in 2028!
